Sorry.  Forgot to mention:

platform i686-pc-linux-gnu
arch     i686             
os       linux-gnu        
system   i686, linux-gnu  
status                    
major    1                
minor    7.0              
year     2003             
month    04               
day      16               
language R                

Redhat 7.3.  

I'm compiling without root access, which you appear to be doing.  I
got a lot further when I tinkered with the base-Ex.R file, seeming to
have no problem with internet.R.  You seem to be saying you didn't
have the problem I had.  I'd be interested to know how that could be.

You should be able to find a 'fail' file to see what didn't work.  In
your case, it would be
/home/laurent/R-release/tests/internet.Rout.fail



I've run into another one with some data called cement at the end
(line 871) of reg-tests-2.Rout.  So far, I can't work out where it
should be findable from.

Ideas welcome.

best
