Yes, I did "make rsync-recommended" per Chapter 3 of the manual and that worked without error.
I first inadvertently had tried to build the 2.16 version in /trunk and got that "undefined exports" error, then switched to the /R-2-15-branch when I realized /trunk held the development version. In between the two svn checkouts, I had tried the source tar ball at the link R-2.15.1.tar.gz. That terminated much sooner in the build, which I thought could have resulted from me using 7-Zip on the tar ball (lacking a windows version of your tar), so I went back to the subversion checkout method. > > > > This is my first try building R from source.
