That may be related. I only recently set R_PAPERSIZE to be driven from
Debian's global paperconf setting which is supposed result in
/etc/R/Renviron having

## edd Apr 2004:  use Debian's paperconf settings, with thanks to Matej Cepl
R_PAPERSIZE=${R_PAPERSIZE-$(cat /etc/papersize)}

yet I just noticed that my own installation doesn't have that. And yes,
looks like a build-time patch failed. bNeed to check that ...

Anyway, see of correcting R_PAPERSIZE to what you really use (letter,
maybe?) helps...
