eigen(matrix(rep(1,9),ncol=3),only.values=T)

works repeatedly but eventually (after 3 or 4 goes) gave a core dump
of 11mb (I think only the first answer was right).

if I type
gc()
immediately after the first call, I get a core dump right away (this
might possibly be related to my huge core dumps with nlm)

eigen(matrix(rep(1,9),ncol=3))
core dumps immediately after the first call

The bug in foreign function calling pointed out by Martin in a different
context does this, if you haven't fixed it (it's more recent than 50a3).
In naoktrim in dotcode.c, which begins 
static SEXP naoktrim(SEXP s, int * len, int *naok, int *dup)
{
        SEXP value;

        if(s == R_NilValue) {
                value = R_NilValue;
                *naok = 0;
                *dup = 0;
                *len = 0;
        }
   
change *dup = 0 to *dup = 1.
