[Rd] bug loading libraries with winXP and 2.2.0 but not 2.1.1 (PR#8200)

[Robert Gentleman]

Hi,
  thanks for the report - but it should have gone to the Bioconductor 
list, and the package maintainer, thanks.

  New versions of multtest and a few other packages will percolate up in 
the next few days to resolve the problem.

  Best wishes,
    Robert
