No, because R is linked with the C compiler and not the Fortran compiler.
Did you look in config.log and see what it indicated the error was?
You have not shown us anything that indicates that this is a bug in R.
You also haven't told us what architecture this is: I tried mixing gcc
3.4.4 and ifort 9.0 on x86_64 Fedora Core 3, and had no problems.

I presume you mean to rebuild 'configure': configure.ac does not depend on
R.m4. Just configure in maintainer mode, and 'make'.

We cannot fix things that we cannot reproduce.
