R is designed to run from its build directory. But if your sysadmin installs it
with "make install" (as root), then the shell wrapper that is installed in
/usr/local/bin/R will have R_HOME pointing to the right location
(/usr/local/lib/R). Literally moving the build directory to another location
is the wrong thing to do.
