This strikes me as an issue for, at best, r-devel. SVN snapshots of R _are unreleased_ software without implied guaranty. That said, I too build R from SVN about once a week, but I have not had issues in years. And I just did an 'svn up' followed by my build script, and all is still well: edd@max:~$ bin/R-devel.sh R Under development (unstable) (2013-10-21 r64091) -- "Unsuffered Consequences" Copyright (C) 2013 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit) [....] Using Ubuntu 13.04, current. Also using MAKE="make -j4" -- so I think you need to do so some debugging at your end.
