Yes, every new R version requires a new rpy build, unfortunately,  What made
matters worse is that the current rpy (v1) depends on a header file that R
2.8.0 no longer provides.  I was awaiting guidance from Greg.

All good. I'll build a new rpy but be warned that the removal of the header
may trigger unforseen consequences...
