This error indicates that the compiler (cc with flags -xc99 -m64,
etc.) sees the size of the 'long' data type in C is different from
what was seen when libcurl was configured, built and installed.
So basically the compiler and/or the compiler flags were different.
How was libcurl installed - from source or from a pre-built binary ?
What compiler and flags were used?
The header is from a prebuilt binary (from OpenCSW). That is built
with gcc and not the Sun compiler. And curlbuild.h says
/* Allow 32 and 64 bit headers to coexist */
#if defined __amd64 || defined __x86_64 || defined __sparcv9
#include "curlbuild-64.h"
#else
#include "curlbuild-32.h"
#endif
which AFAIK are gcc and not Sun defines. You could try adding
-D__sparcv9 to the CPPFLAGS, or compile RCurl with OpenCSW's gcc
build (but 64-bit gcc is another can of worms).
I've pointed out to Jun Zhang several times that 64-bit Sparc Solaris
is really pushing it, and 32-bit R on Sparc Solaris has been much more
successful. Given that x86_64 boxes (Solaris or Linux) are so much
faster at computation than Sparc ones, I don't see the point of
building 64-bit Sparc Solaris R -- if 32-bit R is not enough you need
a faster machine.
