[R] array in version 2.8.0

[David Stoffer]

Ok- it works now after flushing my objects.  The package Oarray doesn't seem
to work under version 2.8.0.  I emailed Jonathan about it and he said he
won't get to updating it until next year.  In the meantime, I was trying to
produce a seat-of-the-pants workaround and I probably redefined "as.array"
in my carelessness.  Sorry for waking everybody up.
