Where did you get that from?  lme has been obselete for a long time.

What I suspect has happened is that you have also installed an old
version of nls on top of the system's copy, and that does not work.
The message probably means that there are unsatisfied entry points, as
there will be with pre-2000 versions.  (No current package version
is older than 2000/1/29.)

My suggestion is that you wipe out your rw1000 installation and install a
fresh copy of rw1001 from CRAN, together with nlme.zip.  And throw away
anything else you have that is from before 2000/1/29.
