I think you have glibc-headers missing. On an F8 system I get
eclectus% rpm -qf /usr/include/limits.h
glibc-headers-2.7-2
eclectus% rpm -qf /usr/include/stdio.h
glibc-headers-2.7-2
eclectus% rpm -qf /usr/include/stdlib.h
glibc-headers-2.7-2
You may find that glibc-devel is also missing and needed.
Did you install the R-devel RPM (you cannot have built R on that system)?
That's the way to pull in the dependencies you need to make packages.
