Jennifer, you didn't tell us what tools you use, but my guess would be that you're using Apple's gcc which is broken. Although I don't quite see the point in building R 2.3.1 from sources on a Mac, you can do so using gcc 4.0.3 that comes with the R 2.3.1 binary or is available separately from http://r.research.att.com Alternatively you should be able to use any recent gcc >= 4.0.3 as long as you have a matching gfortran and Apple's gcc driver.
