[R] RE: new packages: geepack and KMsurv

[Jari Oksanen]

Dear Peter, Duncan &al,

Yes, with  --enable-R-shlib && make things seem to work: R is able to load 
both olden and newly installed libraries. Some baffling details remain:

- I am sure that I never earlier enabled this when building R, but now it seems 
to be necessary for loading old libraries. I don't know why. 

- Binary upgrading of rpm's (1.5.1 -> 1.6.0) in my RH7.3 is incompatible with
old libraries, and these must be re-installed (or R must be built from the
source with --enable-R-shlib). 

It seems that ./configure with default switches gives different configuration 
(although it doesn't say so). "Undocumented behaviour" may be good phrase here.

cheers, jari oksanen
