[BioC] farms package fails on estrogen data

Dear list,
I've tried to use l.farms (farms package)
http://www.bioinf.jku.at/software/farms/farms.html
for preprocessing the estrogen data set available at
http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/data/experiment/html/estrogen.html

When trying to preprocess using l.farms, the following error comes up:

background correction: none
normalization: loess
PM/MM correction : pmonly
expression values: farms
background correcting...done.
normalizing...Error: NA/NaN/Inf in call to external function (arg 1)

q.farms works for the same data set and l.farms works for the Dilution 
data set, so, I don't know what is going on here.

Any suggestions?
Javier
