I can confirm this bug on Solaris 2.8 running R-1.8.1.  Here's a simplified
version:

y <- list()
sapply(1, function(i) y[[i]] <- expression(1))
cbind(1, rep(2,1))

  [ Process R segmentation Fault at Tue Dec  9 09:20:33 2003 ]

Curiously, replacing the third line with
  cbind(1, 2)
does not casue a crash, even though rep(2,1) == 2 !
