[R] Assist on R-2.0.0 /64 bit AMD/SuSE 9.1

[Prof Brian Ripley]

What is Assist-0.1.0?  It's not part of R and it is not a CRAN nor 
Bioconductor package.  

There is a CRAN package `assist', and if you mean that please follow the
advice in the posting guide and contact the maintainer.  Now, that package
says

Title: A Suite of S-Plus Functions Implementing Smoothing Splines

and S-PLUS functions don't run on 64-bit versions of R.  I suggest you and
the maintainer look for the use of `long *' in .C calls: S-PLUS uses `long 
*' where R uses `int *'.
