Thanks Martin! The latest snapshot (R-devel_2009-09-03.tar.gz) looks OK.

FYI the tarballs with a broken name are still here
(ftp://ftp.stat.math.ethz.ch/Software/R/):

  R-devel_.tar.bz2
  R-devel_.tar.gz

Cheers,
H.

Yes, I now did and have fixed the problem.

It was from an OS change (from Redhat to Fedora) which I had not
checked the way I thought I had ...

I'm sorry for any inconveniences.
