[R-sig-ME] error loading lme4a (and b)

[Robert Kushler]

I got the same error on a Win XP machine as well.  I updated Matrix from the
R Forge site - still no joy.  Do I need to update the other dependencies from
there as well?

I suppose I could use the solution Doug Bates proposed for another issue - remove
Windows and install Linux - but I'm hoping for a less drastic solution.   :-)
