How did you install R?
This looks like an issue where R was built wiht g77 bu that is no
longer present.
A system using gcc 4.1.2 should be using gfortran not g77 (for
compatibility).
R 2.7.1 is obsolete: I suggest you install a current R from the
sources (or a source RPM).

We receive the following error (see below, can't find ?lg2c) it is in the
