Dear all,

I obtained and successfully compiled R 2.1.0 on Mac OSX 10.3.9.  The 
flags used for configuration are:

./configure --enable-utf8 --enable-R-shlib --with-blas='-framework 
vecLib' --with-lapack --with-aqua 
--with-tcl-config=/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/tclConfig.sh 
--with-tk-config=/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/tkConfig.sh 
TCLTK_LIBS='-framework Tcl -framework Tk' 
TCLTK_CPPFLAGS='-I/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.Framework/Headers 
-I/Library/Frameworks/Tk.Framework/Headers'

A straight-forward read.csv[] function returns the following error:

 > map.plain <- read.csv("~/Projects/ProjectMap/plain.csv", na.strings = 
".")
Error in type.convert(data[[i]], as.is = as.is[i], dec = dec, 
na.strings = character(0)) :
	invalid multibyte string

I had used the exact command with R 2.0.1 compiled with almost exactly 
the same configuration (except the utf8 support) and had no errors.  
Could you please enlighten this unknowledgeable soul as to the nature 
of the problem?  I searched in R-help digest to no avail.  Thank you 
very much in advance.

Kind regards,
