Could cctools-port be used to cross-compile R for iOS?

[SugarRayLua]

Hello.

I am a novice linux user/programmer who would like to run the R statistical language natively on my iPad. As far as I can tell, no one has successfully cross-compiled R for iOS (one developer on the App Store has tried: "R Analyst" but the app is unable to perform many R functions). Yet, R successfully compiles on Mac OSX. I came across the cctool-port on github and was wondering if it might be able to help me cross-compile R for iOS. If so, I'm willing to learn/try cross-compiling to iOS on Linux (or via terminal on my MacOS) and would appreciate any additional tips beyond the instructions provided in the README.

Thanks and Happy Holidays!
