[R] mtrace() fails

[Prof Brian Ripley]

That error message is the symptom of

     o	rbind() failed if the only data frame had 0 rows. (PR#9657)

so please try R-patched.  If that does not work, you will need to do some 
debugging (see `Writing R Extensions') on your own setup and talk to the 
maintainer of the package (see the posting guide).
