[Rd] Error in loadNamespace(name) (PR#9464)

[ripley at stats.ox.ac.uk]

It does not help, except to show that your original report was not a 
true reflection of the situation, and that you are not willing to give 
the more information that we did ask for, namely the saved image.

When I do what you said you did, there is no reference to 'lattice' in the 
saved image.

It seems likely that

1) Your Windows setup is not factory-fresh in ways that you have not told 
us.

2) Your 'Lunix' setup is broken, as Peter Dalgaard suggested.

I am going to close this non-bug report.
