We have R 2.2.1 installed on a Linux cluster that seems to have problems
loading either of our shared object libraries for packages. This seems to be
happening on both local and global versions of packages that we install.
However, we have only noticed this problem in the past 3 months on this R
installation, whereas some users had success before then. It could be that
something on our system changed, but I am not an admin so I wouldn't know where
to look. Can anyone help with this problem?
## A LOCAL INSTALLATION OF HAPLO.STATS APPEARS SUCCESSFUL

Also, the .First.lib for haplo.stats looks like this:
.First.lib <- function(lib, pkg) {
library.dynam("haplo.stats", pkg, lib)
}
Thanks for you suggestions,
