[R] odd error messages coming from val.prob() {Design}

[Dylan Beaudette]

Hi,

after upgrading my R install from 2.5 -> 2.6.1 and performing multiple 
iterations of update.packages(), I am getting an odd error when trying to 
plot a calibration curve from the val.prob() function in package Design.

when running this function (which used to work) I get the following error 
message:

Error in .C("lowess", x = as.double(xy$x[o]), as.double(xy$y[o]), n, 
as.double(f),  : 
  C symbol name "lowess" not in DLL for package "base"

Here is my relevent session info:

Any ideas?
