Hmm, something is up. I got

Error in file(file, "r", encoding = encoding) :
unable to open connection
In addition: Warning message:
cannot open: HTTP status was '404 Not Found'> source(url("http://www.bioconductor.org/biocLite.R"))
*** caught segfault ***
address 0x21, cause 'memory not mapped'
Traceback:
1: file(file, "r", encoding = encoding)

Possible actions:
1: abort (with core dump)
2: normal R exit

4: exit R saving workspace

Oops...
The immediate cause would seem to be that
http://bioconductor.org/getBioC.R is non-existent (needs to be
www.bioconductor.org).
That's a server-side issue, not an R problem, but what was that bit
with the segfault? I can't seem to reproduce it in a fresh session.
