For the obselete S-PLUS 2000 they recommended the discontinued Watcom 
compiler.  That case *is* covered in S Programming itself.

I do have the Watcom compilers, but there has been rumoured to be a 
freeware resurrection of them.  However, as the originals do not work 
under Windows XP and I have not used S-PLUS 2000 for over a year
I have not attempted to try the `new' versions.
