.Random.seed(0) is not a valid Normal type

Dear Peter Dalgaard, Brian Ripley, and R-Community,

after compiling and installing R 1.2.2., I started 'demo(graphics)' for
a test, and got:

'Error in rnorm(0): .Random.seed(0) is not a Normal type'

My TypingErr:  ^50 is correct !
     It occured in just the first part of 'demo(graphics)'.

This doesn't normally happen. Did you by any chance load an old
workspace (.RData) on startup? 

Yes!! After moving .RData away to .old.RData the error vanished !
  And yes, the .RData contained '... .Random.seed ... (seen by 'mc').
  But no, it dated '3 Feb ...', thus worked with R 1.2.1. and not
  about 0.63 .

  Many thanks for your very prompt answers at sunday evening !!

                                   Best - Hartmut Oldenbuerger
