Thanks for this. I can confirm that this appears to be correct 
(although you don't need to edit momfit - just add 
plot.progress=FALSE in the call to auto.fit() in ErrorDemo.r). As 
Peter D says, it doesn't exactly help to *find* the problem, but it 
does mean that my PhD student can continue with his work for the 
moment without going back to Rv2.4.1!
With best wishes to all,
Richard
