You could very well be tickling a memory bug, but that version of R is
more than a year out of date and things have changed considerably in
the meantime. Could you please retry with a more recent version? 

And, BTW, large attachments are quite difficult to extract once they
have been mangled by the mailing list and bug filing software, so only
use them as a last resort. It's much preferable if you put it up
separately on your homepage or FTP site.
