I couldn't reproduce this with some released versions of R or a recent
R-devel. Would you mind sharing your sessionInfo()?

If you'd like to, could you please run

R -q -s -e 'x <- vector("list", 2^31)' -d gdb

...then set a breakpoint on Rf_errorcall, run the program and collect a
backtrace when it fires?
