[R] Segmentation fault when using "plot" function

[cchace]

I frequently get a segmentation fault error when using the "plot" command.
It happens about half the time. 

We are running an old version of R (R version 2.8.0 (2008-10-20) on Linux.

I did a quick search for this problem and didn't find anything. Apologies if
I missed it.
