I am having no luck compiling R-2.0.1 on a Windows XP platform. I have not had these problems when compliling previous versions of R.

I've installed all the recommended software and tools. But I cannot get round this error message:

make
make[1]: `Rpwd.exe' is up to date.
make -f Makefile.docfiles
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `docfiles'.
-------- Building ../../../library/base/R/Rprofile from ../../library/profile/Common.R ../../library/profile/Rprofile.windows--------
mkdir -p ../../../library/base/R
cat: not found

cat should be among the tools, looks like Duncan's latest release of tools.zip is missing cat (and I have tested the new release by overwriting older files, so I haven't noticed at least one file is missing this time).

It is in the list mentioned in INSTALL, which is worth checking....
