That your (binary!) version of the RDCOMClient package has been 
installed with R < 2.0.0 ?

Please install a recent version compiled for R-2.0.x. A binary for 
R-2.0.x is available from the Omegahat webpage, or compile from sources 
yourself (you just need to replace one line in Makefile.win, AFAIR).
