It depends on your unstated OS. There are recommendations in the R-admin manual, and those I wrote are still current. Often one cannot easily mix systems based on gcc3 and gcc4: there are a lot of API incompatibilities, at least on 64-bit systems. So if you have a gcc4-based Linux distribution (for example), use its 'native' compilers. If you want more detailed advice, please give fuller details including your exact OS and what compilers you have available to you. -- Brian D.
