Are you intentionally installing a very old version of R? R version 1.7.1 was released over 4 years ago. The current version is 2.6.0, with 2.6.1 imminent. You appear to be missing zlib.h which is typically available in the zlib-devel RPM. Install that RPM and you should be OK, at least for that error. You might want to review the R Installation and Administration for information on building R from source and the requirements.
