It works for me on R 2.0.1 and Windows XP (and also R-devel).
That message is seen very occasionally and usually indicates a Windows file-system problem: it used to happen more with Win98 than with 2000/XP.
Both / and \ are legal and interchangeable in Windows paths, so that is a red herring.

Warning message:
unable to move temp installation 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2001/library\file1104/tframe' to 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/rw2001/library/tframe'library()
Two packages in the bundle installed ok, but tframe did not. I'm not sure why there is a backslash after the first library and nowhere else.
Is this a user error or a bug?
A bug in Windows.
