I truly apologize for not having been thorough in my first mail, requiring a
second mail.

- in Situation 1 (after installing 2.9.0 on top of 2.7.2) (ERROR 1) no
version number is visible upon choosing R 2.7.2 in RSwitch. (Error 1 is the
full error)
- in Situation 2 (after installng 2.7.2 on top of 2.9.0)  (ERROR 2), R 2.7.2
starts again, despite having selected 2.9.0 in RSwitch. I have clarified
Error 2 below to include the full crash output.
