I've added some checks which should catch this.
Thanks a lot.
And I apologize for mixing up the red hat version. I am using EL 5.4.
FInally, while GCC 4.2 is pretty old, it is still the newest release

This is getting increasingly difficult. GCC 4.6.x and 4.7.x detect a
lot of errors (especially C++ errors) that earlier versions did not --
and that means CRAN gets a fair number of submissions that we cannot
compile. And there have been a lot of optimization advances since 4.1.x.
