[R] Problems with rbind

[Gabor Grothendieck]

It also works for me using zoo 1.5-4 and R 2.7.2.  Try it running at the
beginning of a vanilla session.  If still a problem reinstall zoo:

install.packages("zoo", dep = TRUE)

If still a problem reinstall R and then reinstall zoo, preferable
going to R 2.8.0.
