[R] Solaris install problem ... mcount

[Tim Hoar]

Turns out you're right (imagine my surprise ;) -- a colleague of mine
also pointed this out. In my config.site I had

MAIN_CFLAGS="-pg -v"   and
MAIN_FFLAGS="-pg -v"   but NOT

MAIN_LDFLAGS="-pg -v"

The MAIN_CFLAGS and MAIN_FFLAGS comment blocks mention using the -pg
flag, but the comment block for MAIN_LDFLAGS does not. It might
be clearer to newbies like me if there was a similar comment in the
MAIN_LDFLAGS block.

Having said that:

I assume all responsibility for tinkering with the config.site file.
I should have known better.

Thanks for the always-prompt reply.

Tim

If I might make a suggestion; it would also be nice to have a comment
in the config.site file about using the png and jpeg libraries as well
as any "high-performance" libraries.
