This is good news. As far as I know R has built for quite some time
now on a number of 64 bit platforms (Linux on AMD Opteron/Athlon64,
Solaris/Sparc) but I can't recall seeing a build on Intel with the 64
bit extensions. By the way, did you happen to run `make check' just

Ill add SGI/IRIX 64 bit platform to the list. I've been running a 64
bit-compiled R on an SGI octane 2 for over a
This article might be of interest to some:

Regarding 64-bit build of R, I can confirm Irix, Alpha and AIX, although
some w/o readline/jpeg/png/X support, partially because of difficulties
linking against 64-bit version of those libraries.
Best,
