[R-sig-Geo] gDistance problem on RHEL 6 64-bit

[Hollister, Jeff]

Hello all,

I am having a problem with rgeos::gDistance on RHEL 6.  Everytime I try to get a point to point distance, I get

R: GeometryComponentFilter.cpp:34: virtual void geos::geom::GeometryComponentFilter::filter_ro(const geos::geom::Geometry*): Assertion `0' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

This only occurs on my RHEL 6 machine.  Win 7 and Ubuntu 14.04 work fine.

Some code to reproduce the problem:
library(sp)
library(rgeos)
pt1<-SpatialPoints(data.frame(x=c(1,3),y=c(3,1)))
pt2<-SpatialPoints(data.frame(x=1,y=1))
gDistance(pt2,pt1)
