Some time ago Rajarshi Guha introduced R bindings for the CDK (see his CDK News articles), and today I tried to install his rcdk package that makes it happen.

However, it requires SJava which compiled fine on other machines, but not on my AMD64 machine. The problem seems to be related to the GNU GCC 4.0 compiler I have installed. Compiling with 3.4 works fine, but 4.0 complains with:

CtoJava.cweb:215: error: static declaration of 'std_env' follows non-static declaration
CtoJava.cweb:195: error: previous declaration of 'std_env' was here

Googling, learned me that I am not the only one with this problem, but did not find any solution. If you know how to fix this problem, please leave a message in the comments.
