[R] mgcv::gam error message

- Any chance you could send me some code (and associated data) that I can 
cut and paste in order to chase this up? Whatever's wrong here, `gam' 
should probably pick it up before things get this far, but I can't tell 
what's happening without a reproducible example.

Thanks,
Simon
