[R] Can't reproduce clusplot princomp results.

Dear R folk:
Perhaps I'm just dense today, but I am having trouble reproducing the
principal components plotted and summarized by clusplot. Here is a brief
example using the pluton dataset. clusplot reports that the first two
principal components explain 99.7% of the variability. But this is not what
princomp is reporting. I would greatly appreciate any advice.
With best regards,
