It is considered extremely bad behavior to report something like this as bug (see recent post on R-devel).
Yes it is a nuisance, but thankfully we seem to have solved the problem in the meantiime.
Sorry .. I don't follow ... so, just out of curiosity, who reported anything as a bug? I'm trying to help clear up what behavior, exactly, should be avoided in the future.
See https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2009-March/052359.html: Mary Meyer did as PR#13565. (I am about to reply about how I would like this to be handled: and as the person most likely to have to clear this up, what I would like is rather relevant.)
Thanks, -steve
The one thing I at least have learnt is that a note somewhere about how to deal with this problem would be appropriate: perhaps in one of the FAQs. Brian Ripley

Yes, remove .Rhistory and possibly also .RData and your .Rprofile Kasper On Mar 2, 2009, at 8:29 , William Revelle wrote:
Mary, A somewhat similar problem happened to me in January. Following the advice of Byron Ellis , I removed the .Rhistory file At 4:45 PM -0800 1/1/09, Byron Ellis wrote:
From the crash report it looks like perhaps your history file has been corrupted. I'd delete it and try again

It's probably a file called .Rhistory in your home directory.

Help! I was running R code and started getting error messages that would not stop repeating. I force-quit R, but when I attempted to run it again, it would not start (Icon kept bouncing until I force-quit again). I restarted the computer, then I reinstalled R, but that did not fix the problem. I deleted everything I could find related to R, and installed again. Each time I install I get a "successful" message, but it does not start. I don't know what to try next. I have the latest versions of the operating system. Thanks very much for your time.
