TL;DR: I can compile C/Fortran to install packages that need
compilation, but I get loads of warnings. I must have quirks in my
setup, possibly including the need to add system header files
compatible with clang4.
Details:
I have
: R version 3.4.0 (2017-04-21) -- "You Stupid Darkness"
: macOS 10.12.5 (16F73) aka Sierra -- on an older MacBook Pro
: Xcode 7.3 (mindful of advice that version 8.0 has some gotchas)
: clang version 4.0.0 (tags/RELEASE_400/final) (in /usr/local/clang4/bin)
: gfortran reports: gcc version 6.1.0 (GCC) (in /usr/local/bin)
: PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/TeX/texbin:/usr/local/bin
bash-3.2$ grep -v "#" ~/.R/MakeVars
CC=/usr/local/clang4/bin/clang
CXX=/usr/local/clang4/bin/clang++
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/clang4/lib
CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/clang4/include
-I/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.11.sdk/usr/include
bash-3.2$
I came to the CPPFLAGS setting by trial and error - noticing that
compilations generated fatal errors and complaints about not finding
<string.h> and hunting my system for it.

With all this packages will install, but generate lots of warnings, viz.

Further, attempts to use inline::cfunction(...) will *sometimes* fail.
I recall that this depends on whether I specify #include directives
and maybe which headers I use.
Advice appreciated.
