I've finally narrowed down a puzzling problem: here is the short test
case.

-----------------------------------------

Within the library is a definition of %*% for bdsmatrix objects, which
is perhaps the issue.  But I'm only guessing since I don't have a clear
idea what the error message means.  Any hints are appreciated.

The new coxme/bsdmatrix packages need only a couple more functions to be
a complete replacement for kinship, at which point we will depreciate
it. (Pedigrees and plotting were finished last weekend!)  But I can't
quite do that yet. The error does not arise with these newer libraries.
There have been no changes to kinship for some time.
