This is very exciting; I wasn't expecting such a prompt response.  The  
only references I have found are these two threads from nearly a year  
ago:

https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2008-February/004602.html
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2008-February/155041.html

Thanks for giving this a look.
