I get an error when running `make check-all' fails on:
R-1.7.0beta_latest.tar.gz 26-Mar-2003 16:08 8.8M
Here's the very end of tests/Examples/base-Ex.Rout.fail:
### * object.size
### Name: object.size ### Title: Report the Space Allocated for an Object ### Aliases: object.size ### Keywords: utilities
### ** Examples
object.size(letters)
[1] 340
object.size(ls)

## find the 10 largest objects in base z <- sapply(ls("package:base"), function(x) object.size(get(x)))
Error in get(x) : F used instead of FALSE Execution halted

Confirmed Roger's finding on RH 8.0, otherwise it compiles fine.
As an aside, RH 9 to be called 'Shrike', (curiously skipping 8.1 due to binary incompatibility issues) will be available on March 31 to paid RHN subscribers. It will be available a week later to all folks.
Folks doing development may want to be aware, if not already, of the change in the threading approach used in RH 9 which will go to the Native POSIX Threads Library. Some very brief information on the change and possible application related problems is available here:
https://listman.redhat.com/pipermail/phoebe-list/2003-March/004919.html
There is also a white paper here:
http://people.redhat.com/drepper/nptl-design.pdf
I raise this in case this might in any way affect anyone's development considerations.
HTH,
Marc Schwartz
