Actually, on Ubuntu 8.04 (64-bit) I get
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/bin/R CMD config --cppflags
-I/usr/share/R/include -I/usr/share/R/include
which has the -I<..> doubled, a slight infelicity ...
Wonder how this came about.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a

GNU/Linux
This is - almost surely - the r-base-core package from CRAN.

or has had time for it, at the time?
Did you get reactions from R-core at all?
