[R] Rmpi installs before R-3.0.0 but not since

With R-3.0.1

Loading required package: Rmpi
Failed with error:  ‘package ‘Rmpi’ was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it’


And when I try to reinstall Rmpi, I get this

<after a whole bunch of 'yes's>
....
checking mpi.h usability... no
checking mpi.h presence... no
checking for mpi.h... no
configure: error: "Cannot find mpi.h header file"
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘Rmpi’


And attempting to go back....

With R-2.15.3, I get these warnings:

Warning messages:
1: package ‘gbm’ was built under R version 3.0.1 
2: package ‘survival’ was built under R version 3.0.1 
[1] "Error in socketConnection(\"localhost\", port = port, server = TRUE, blocking = TRUE,  : \n  cannot open the connection\n"

So there's no going back.  

Where do I look for reasons why Rmpi can't find mpi.h header even
though it was findable before 3.0.1?  I know not to take that message
too literally since there is a file mpi.h that bash can find.
Something else is being hinted at but what?
