After upgrading R from version 2.7.2 to 2.8.0, I have trouble loading library 'gsl' as shown below. What is missing?

Thanks,
Gang

GNU Scientific Library. We don't have GSL on the CRAN machine and  
somehow some version of the gsl package managed to slip through  
without passing check. I have added GSL to the CRAN machine today, so  
there should be working gsl package binary on CRAN soon.

Thanks,
Simon
