The reason is this:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/e7/pd/r-patched/BUILD/R-1.8.1/src/library/Recommended'
mv: writing `/home/ftp/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.8.1beta_2003-11-17.tar.gz': No space left on device


I removed the alpha versions to get a little more space, so it should
be there now. Does sound a bit ominous that we're so close to the
limit, though.
