I haven't seen the error you report, but the general strategy on seeing a make error is to "make distclean", and try again. If that doesn't work, it might be worth checking your Perl version: R 2.0.0 seems to need 5.8.x. Previously this was just recommended, and I ran on 5.6.x until very recently. I thought I had updated the Rtools page (www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools) to say this, but looking just now shows the old page...
