[Bioc-devel] could not install S4Vectors in Mac OS 10.8.5

Hi,

I am receiving the same error message, but under different conditions, 
and I don't know how to fix it. If anyone has an idea, much appreciated!

Here is my setup:
1) R Under development (unstable) (2016-01-06 r69881) (3.3.0)
Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit)
Running under: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
2) Bioconductor version 3.4 (devel)
3) I updated BiocGenerics to the latest version, which worked fine 
(other attached packages:
[1] BiocGenerics_0.19.1  BiocInstaller_1.23.5)
4) If I try to install S4Vectors either via biocLite("S4Vectors") or 
manually via R CMD INSTALL, I get the message:
/Creating a generic function for ‘t’ from package ‘base’ in package 
‘S4Vectors’
Error in rematchDefinition(definition, fdef, mnames, fnames, signature) :
   arguments (na.last, decreasing) after '...' in the generic must 
appear in the method, in the same place at the end of the argument list
Error : unable to load R code in package ‘S4Vectors’
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘S4Vectors’/

Any ideas, what am I overseeing? The only weird thing I noticed is the 
following:

 > biocLite("BiocUpgrade")
Error: Bioconductor version 3.4 cannot be upgraded with R version 3.3.0

I thought R >=3.3.0 is sufficient for Bioconductor 3.4, shouldn't I 
receive a "already the latest version" message instead?

Thanks!
