[R] incompatible dimensions error

Hi,

It seems like the package "mvpart" is quite outdated and not available for
the current R release. Since PCA is a very common need I'll suggest finding
a replacement for it so that the error will either go away, or it is easier
for us to reproduce it.

Best,
Jiefei
