[R] cannot calculate standard estimate with predict on loess

Hi,
For some reason I have been unable to use the predict function when I
desire the standard error to be calculated too. For example, when I try
the following:
l<- loess(d~x+y, span=span, se=TRUE)
p<- predict(l, se=TRUE)
I get the following error message:
Error in vector("double", length) : vector size cannot be NA
In addition: Warning message:
In N * M1 : NAs produced by integer overflow
But when I try the following:
l<- loess(d~x+y, span=span, se=TRUE)
p<- predict(l, se=FALSE)
I have no problem, and p$fit gives me the desired fitted values. Note
that the only difference in this piece of code is se=FALSE.
My data d is a vector, and x and y are vectors too of the same length.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Saurav
