Like Solaris and some other OSes, Darwin can run 32- and 64-bit code
on the same basically 32-bit OS. Some OSes do it the other way
around, so e.g. Windows and Linux run a 32-bit subsystem with a 64-bit
kernel.
I suspect you do have s 64-bit build of R running on your 32-bit OS.

======================
Dear all,
I have been looking for solutions for my problem on installing x86_64 R under
my home directory
on Mac OS X for a couple days.
It seems to me that the best described answer is on
http://r.research.att.com/building.html
I followed pretty much every step on the page, and I do get R installed in my
home directory, but it is a i386 version, not a x86_64.
Here are what I have for installation.
## User privilege:
Normal user with root privilege…
## System:
Mac OS X/Leopard 10.5.6/Intel Xeon/ X code (latest ver.) installed
## Source codes:
“R-2.8.1.tar.gz”, downloaded from
http://cran.fhcrc.org/src/base/R-2/R-2.8.1.tar.gz
## my configure:
$./configure –prefix=$HOME r_arch=x86_64 \
CC="gcc -arch x86_64 -std=gnu99" \
CXX="g++ -arch x86_64" \
OBJC="gcc -arch x86_64" \
F77="gfortran -arch x86_64" \
FC="gfortran -arch x86_64" \
--with-system-zlib \
--with-blas='-framework vecLib' --with-lapack
## make and install
$make
$make install
One clue might be helpful is that after running the configure, there is a
sentence said
“R is now configured for i386-apple-darwin9.6.0”
Not sure why it is configured for i386 though.
Besides, I also tried and ran the entire codes under copy/paste guide on the
same page http://r.research.att.com/building.html, but still got the same
result.
## The following is the sessionInfo() of R
sessionInfo()
R version 2.8.1 (2008-12-22)
i386-apple-darwin9.6.0
locale:
C
attached base packages:
[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base
## end of sessionInfo()
Any suggestion or comments?
Thanks in advance!
