RPY_SHNAME turned out to be a quoting problem, but eventually ...

... this stumped me. rpy links with both python (built with the system's
gcc, 4.0.1) and R (built with gcc 4.0.4), and Gregory is right, they don't
play well together. I'm currently corresponding with the R portfile author
to work on this. I'm not sure what to do. R won't build with 4.0.1.
I guess I could rebuild python with 4.0.4 and that might be the only
way to make it work. 

Other notes I learned along the way:

- gcc 4.0.4 does not work with -Wno-long-double or -no-cpp-precomp, but 
  4.0.1 does.

- Don't start a gcc command line with the first option beginning with
  -b (as in -bundle), because if a -b is the first argument, it's
  interpreted differently; I added a -v as the first argument to get
  around this.
