I don't see the need for a patch since lpsymphony's configure script first
searches for a system installed symphony library before considering to
build the included sources. It therefore should be sufficient to build with
'coinor-libsymphony-dev' installed. Have you tried that? The resulting
library /usr/lib/R/site-libary/lpsymphony/libs/lpsymphony.so should be
dynamically linked with the system installed symphony library.
