I installed the MinGW-5.0.0 compilers today (gcc-3.4.2 is now contained in the 
'Current' distribution. When the current compilers failed to compile the 
referenced Matrix update and not knowing how to check the exact version numbers 
for individual files, I applied the Id.exe and f771.exe fixes from the 
'Building R for Windows' page 
(http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/#ldbug). More compiler errors were 
obtained. I then checked my Pearl version (5.8.7) and updated my R tools since 
I couldn't tell how old they were. At that point, I obtained the following 
output:

Removing 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-22~1.1/library/matrix'
Restoring previous 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-22~1.1/library/matrix'

If I need to read one of R's many friendly manuals, I'd appreciate a reference 
to which one and approximately which section.

Thanks.
