Works for me. There were recent updates of Matrix (yours is not the 
latest), lme4a, and lme4b. I think you need to update your installation.

Cheers,

Renaud

I got the same error with the CRAN version of MatrixModels (0.2.1).

I got the same error on a Win XP machine as well.  I updated Matrix from the
R Forge site - still no joy.  Do I need to update the other dependencies from
there as well?

I suppose I could use the solution Doug Bates proposed for another issue - remove
Windows and install Linux - but I'm hoping for a less drastic solution.   :-)

At least less drastic would be to install VMware and run a virtual Linux 
machine within. Works perfectly for me.
