No on else is having this problem, including the OS X and Windows binary
builds and all the CRAN platforms.
I wondered if something is wrong with your collation: the function is
defined in QC.R and used in admin.R pdftools.R sotools.R, so if admin.R
< QC.R there would be a problem.
You could try setting LC_COLLATE=C in your environment, although the
Makefile does that.
You really haven't shown enough output before the problem so we don't
actually know which phase failed.

Based on a clean SVN checkout of R-devel r61617, building in a
separate directory, I end up with
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : object '.print.via.format' not found
Has anyone encountered this or does anyone have any further
clues/diagnostic hints? I found .print.via.format defined in the
middle of src/library/tools/all.R , and in the source in
src/library/tools/R/QC.R, and I see that it was added in r61322
(2012-12-14); is there anything else I can try?

PS: I did successfully build R by reverting to r61321. I'm not sure I
have the time and energy to do the full binary search between r61321 and
r61617 [8 steps, rebuilding R each time] to see where it breaks. I need
to try to get up to r61589 or thereabouts, which is the version in which
the tests of my package broke on the CRAN check ...
I may yet try: (1) configuring without --enable-R-shlib (I can't see
why that would be relevant here, but it is something I'm doing that's
slightly "non-standard" that therefore might have been missed by
others); (2) updating to r61322 or 61323 and seeing if the breakage
happens right there (although it's possible that something was broken in
61322 and fixed for everyone else thereafter, and the problem is still
my fault -- I don't see anything obvious to that effect in the SVN log,
but I could have missed it ...)
