isoMDS (MASS) drops names of points. The reason seems to be that R-2.1.0
abandoned names.dist that isoMDS uses to get the Labels attribute of dist
object:

   points <- matrix(tmp$y, , k)
   rn <- if (is.matrix(d))
       rownames(d)
   else names(d)   # This does not work any longer
   dimnames(points) <- list(rn, NULL)
   list(points = points, stress = tmp$val)

The solution is obvious but not very elegant.
