When I run the following:

You probably need to install libraries related to gfortran.

Yes, specifically libgfortran. Look at rpm -qa | grep libgfortran to see what versions are installed (if any).

But how was R installed? If this was installed from an RPM it should have satisfied such dependencies (and R-sig-fedora would be a more appropriate list).

I think the issue relates to the version of libgfortran, and I've seen it using binaries compiled on an older version of Fedora. Maybe that symbol is used by gfortran 4.1.x and not by 4.3.x, so is in libgfortran.so.1 but not in libgfortran.so.3. If this were Fedora, I would be sugggesting installing the compat-libgfortran-41 RPM.
