R help - Oct 2004 - Error in lazyLoadDBfetch

Hello,

what does the following error mean??
It occured during or at the end of a lengthy (and memory-intensive) 
calculation using a routine from a shared library called via the '.C' 
function:

Error in lazyLoadDBfetch(key, datafile, compressed, envhook) :
         recursive default argument reference

I could not find any help with help.search("lazyLoadDBfetch")
Im using R 2.0.0:
> version
          _
platform i386-pc-mingw32
arch     i386
os       mingw32
system   i386, mingw32
status
major    2
minor    0.0
year     2004
month    10

Any help is appreciated,

Martin Keller-Ressel

No, it's an internal function.  See my article in the current R-news, 
though.

This suggests that the C code you used has corrupted R's memory
allocation.  It should not happen, and has not been seen in really 
extensive testing of 2.0.0 prior to release.
