bbox in the sp package is what you are looking for.

Subject: [R-sig-Geo] minimum area bounding rectangles
Hi R users,
I would like to compute minimum area bounding rectangles for polygon
features to extract short and long axes and azimuths of the long axes.
Is this possible in R? I have not been able to find a way (yet).
Thanks in advance for any help.
Murray
