Hi Josef and Emad,

Yes sadly our Mac binaries have this problem. Some people already
reported this on the BioC-devel list:

   https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioc-devel/2010-October/002348.html

We are currently rebuilding them and will update you when they are
fixed.

Thanks for your patience and sorry for the inconvenience,
H.
