If you follow the error traceback (from the bottom of the stack to the
top), the most recent package involved is 'curl'.  It appears that the
segfault occurs when it is loaded.  You probably get the same if you
attempt:

    library(curl)

in a fresh R session.  If so, as Dirk suggests:

make sure to reinstall 'curl'.  If that solves it, it's likely that
other packages have the same issue, so you probably want to start from
a clean slate and wipe your current package library, e.g.
unlink(.libPaths()[1], recursive = TRUE).
