[BioC] Problems with gcrma using latest version of R and Bioconductor

[Francois Pepin]

Hi Seth,

Would it be worth to put a check in biocLite.R or create a similar
script that users could run to check for a version mismatch for a BioC
release?

If you have it output the results of sessionInfo() and put in the FAQ to
run it before asking a question, it could help solve the problem.
