R devel - Apr 2004 - R-1.9.0 beta: vignettes for package grid

Since release of R-1.9.0 is very close, let me mention that there seems 
to be a problem when building vignettes for package grid (see below), 
e.g. yesterday's R-1.9.0 beta on Windows NT 4.0.

This looks familiar... Are you sure that you're not picking up an old
version of something (lattice, say)? I think that last time we saw it,
the reason was either not having run rsync-recommended or having an
older version in the library path.
