[Rd] arima: segmentation fault

Quoting Prof Brian Ripley <ripley at stats.ox.ac.uk>:

The series is 1000 long.

Correct guess! ARIMA gave me good results using the last 336 samples as input,
so I though I'd try with the whole 1000. I am abviously not an expert
statistician and I am working on a brute force approach by trying all the p, d,
q and P, D, Q seasonal parameters...
