Doesn't happen to me:

  > x <- array(1:4,c(2,2))
  > x
      [,1] [,2]
[1,]    1    3
[2,]    2    4
  > class(x)
[1] "matrix"
  > as.array(x)
      [,1] [,2]
[1,]    1    3
[2,]    2    4

My sessionInfo() is:

  > sessionInfo()
R version 2.8.0 (2008-10-20)
i386-apple-darwin8.11.1

locale:
C

attached base packages:
[1] datasets  utils     stats     graphics  grDevices methods   base

other attached packages:
[1] misc_0.0-9     fortunes_1.3-5 MASS_7.2-44

Is there another array() function hanging around in your search path?

	cheers,
