[BioC] CEL file conversion for custom CDF arrays gives segmentation fault when run

Hi ,
      We use the Bioconductor package for conversion of CEL files from 
affymetrix into tab-delimited (probe values to expression values).This 
works absolutely fine with  regular arrays.(This is in Linux)

      For custom CDF files ,I used the "makecdfenv" package for creating 
the  CDF  files.As far as I see it the whole thing went without any 
warnings.
But fails with a segmentation fault when executing the conversion(justRMA)


On the command Line (not-Batch file)
****************************************
 > eset<- justRMA()
Background correcting
Normalizing
Calculating Expression
Segmentation fault
****************************

In case of Batch file I get the following error
####################################################
/home/ppws/intel/ppdev/R/R-1.9.1/bin/BATCH: line 55: 23075 
Done                    ( echo "invisible(options(echo = TRUE))"; cat 
${in}; echo "proc.time()" )
     23076 Segmentation fault      | ${R_HOME}/bin/R ${opts} >${out} 2>&1
############################################


I am not sure what causes this ...could you please help me on this ?


Thanks for your time
