Ok, thanks. This should be fixed now. make check didn't catch this,  
because it worked in the command-line version of R.
(use r.research.att.com repository or wait for next CRAN sync)

This is a hack! This is only necessary if you want to have multiple R  
versions on your machine in parallel! Be careful, using it for re- 
installation will break the update process, so use it only if you are  
sure you know what you're doing. (And R installation itself has  
nothing to do with labdsv).
