[R-sig-Geo] can't get gstat to work with R 2.14.0 on Mac

[Edzer Pebesma]

Hi, earlier today I ran into the same kind of error (which I had never
seen before either), on a Linux x86_64:

>> library(gstat) # actually, I loaded spdep
> Error in get(Info[i, 1], envir = env) :
>   internal error -3 in R_decompress1
> Error: package/namespace load failed for ‘gstat’

what helped was re-installing all the packages it depended upon. So, I
would try to reinstall sp, spacetime and zoo, then reinstall gstat.

Let me know if this helps.
