[R-SIG-Mac] problem with mac gui and mvtnorm for R2.14.0 (unstable)

[William Revelle]

Dear Mac R users and developers,

mvtnorm when used in the Mac.app Gui crashes R2.14.0 (unstable).

This does not happen when using R in X windows or when using Rstudio, 
nor does it happen with R2.13.0

I note that my version of R2.14.0 is a month old, but the most recent 
version does not seem to available from the research.att.com page.

Best wishes and thanks for all the work.

Bill
