libR seems to include a main() function. Should it? I'm hoping this simpler question will get more of a response than my previous post about R a la carte :)
The evidence that libR includes main() is two-fold. First, when I use nm, I see the _main defined. Second, when I run a program linked to libR, the main R shell takes over, even though I have my own main (in another library). Looking at the sources, it seems the only possible contributor of main() is src/main/Rmain.c. I wouldn't expect this in the library, and the documentation of the library (in "R Extensions") says you must supply your own main. I have tried to follow through the Makefile's, but the spot the library is built has not jumped out at me. I've encountered this with number of generations of R on a number of platforms (Debian Linux and OS X).
