Hi,

  I'll assume Paul meant config.site which contains all the extra
  compiler and linker flags and those flags are somewhat involved in
  his environment.  Triggered by Paul's email I tried to
  compile R-1.0.0.  It compiles cleanly but dies with "Illegal
  Instruction" upon start.  Sorry, I don't have any further insight
  into this problem at this time.

  I've been working on my Linux box instead of the my AIX workstation
  lately, so I didn't see this earlier.  Actually I've been so busy
  using R, that I've missed to congratulate on the release or 1.0.
  Thanks to all who work on R which has been a tremendous help for me!

  -tom
