[R] using bootstrap for tree selection step in rpart

Hi
I was wondering if someone could help me with an rpart problem.  I can see
that cross-validation is the default for tree selection in rpart -- has a
bootstrap method been implemented anywhere?  I think this is a different
thing to 'bagging' or 'boosting' -- I still want 'one' tree at the end, I
just would like it chosen using a bootstrap method.  Any ideas???

Thanks
Fiona
