You might want to compare your problems with the CRAN checks at
http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_summary.html
as those are run with gcc 4.3.x on Debian testing. From memory, the
problems are confined to C++-(mis)using packages.
With Lenny, build-essentials depends on 4.3, so I'd like
to leave it installed but have also installed 4.2.1. How do I tell
./configure the path to 4.2.1 ? I"m sure it's an option, but I don't
see it documented in the R-admin manual.
From configure --help:
CC C compiler command
CFLAGS C compiler flags
There are many examples of setting CC in the R-admin manual, and the first
para of 'Essential Programs' seems to me to tell you that as well.
