Thank you Martyn,

I am one step closer.  Using R-patched, configure was successful. However,
make exited with an error.

Configure summary:

  Options enabled:           shared BLAS, R profiling, Java
  Recommended packages:      yes

MAKE error:
make returned an error related to platform.c and glob.h.
It seems that glob.h has a poiter to struct dirent {..}, platorm.c has
struct dirent64 {..}.

My cpu is correctly identified as i386 and I included the flag -m32. Do I
need to specify architecture separately?
