[R] segfault when using data.table package in conjunction with foreach
Hi all, I'm trying to use the package read.table within a foreach loop. I'm grabbing 500M rows of data at a time from two different files and then doing an aggregate/tapply like function in read.table after that. I had planned on doing a foreach loop 39 times at once for the 39 files I have, but obviously that won't work until I figure out why the segfault is occurring. The sessionInfo, code, and error are pasted below. If you have any ideas, would love to hear them. (I have no control over the version of R - 2.13.0 - being used).

[R] segfault when using data.table package in conjunction with foreach
0. Read the posting guide! It tells you to 1. Do not cross post! 2. Do try a recent version of R and all packages you have in use. 3. If it still fails, send a reproducible example.
