I've seen this happening when something about the data formatting was not 
right. Maybe it is because of:

> regr is a zoo object with three columns.

Unfortunately, breakpoints() does not yet support "zoo" objects. This has 
been on my todo list for some time but it's still not there. The
recommended workaround is to store the time index elsewhere and query that 

separately, e.g.,

## separate data
mydata <- as.data.frame(regr)
mytime <- time(regr)

## call breakpoints (assuming that y, x1, x2 are the column names of regr)
bp <- breakpoints(y ~ x1 + x2, data = mydata)

## query breakpoints
summary(bp)
breakpoints(bp)
## plot...etc.

## match with time index
mytime[breakpoints(bp)$breakpoints]

Hopefully that solves your problem. Depending on the size of your data 
set, it might also help to set "h" to a more reasonable value than the 
default in breakpoints().
