I can not use any tested graphical features of R without it crashing

Is this a known problem? Any ideas, solutions or workarounds?
Benjamin,
If you are willing to test patches, I will be willing to update R to
latest version with feedback from previous months. I don't grok R, and
I need somebody who can give feedback that R is working as it should.
please let me know, and I will do it soon.
thanks
I will be testing R as well if anybody has patches, at least for
my own benefit. If you want my feedback, I will try to do my best
to document exactly what happens, no more no less.
While I was able to produce a graphical chart after fumbling
around and linking the library the wrong way, there is still a
strange issue with making an assignment to a large vector, where
some temporary storage appears to be erroneously truncated in
certain cases. (If this error still happens after updating R
applying the patch, I will post details.)
I am beginning to suspect that even though this may work somewhat,
it is in fact not working entirely correctly without R being
compiled with the "-pthread" switch, which Antoine and Kenneth
have explained is the correct way to link libpthread.
Thanks for the help,
Justin
