solve(a,b) with two arguments gives an error if a is complex and b is a vector:
a_matrix(c(1,2+3i,3,2),ncol=2)
a
[,1] [,2]
[1,] 1+0i 3+0i
[2,] 2+3i 2+0i
b_c(2,2+1i)
solve(a,b)
Error in solve.default(a, b) : A must be a complex matrix
Running R1.5.1 under Windows 2000.
Many thanks.

Error in solve.default(a, b) : A must be a complex matrix
Two bugs here, one trivial: The error message should say B, not A. The
(slightly) less trivial one is that b needs conversion to matrix for
the underlying Lapack routine to work:
