_APP32_64BIT_OFF_T gets defined in sys/stdsyms.h:
(I've put the file at http://azug.minpet.unibas.ch/~pascal/R/stdsyms.h)
# ifdef _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
# if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64
# define _FILE64 /* _FILE64 is obsolescent; don't use it */
# define __64BIT_OFF_T
# if !defined(__LP64__)
# define _APP32_64BIT_OFF_T
# endif
# else
# if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS != 32
#error "_FILE_OFFSET_BITS defined to invalid number!!"
# endif
# endif/* _FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64 */
# endif /* _FILE_OFFSET_BITS */
Does that mean that the platform include files are broken or is this a problem
with the way they are included in R? I fear I have no means to change
the /usr/include/... files on that machine.
