I have to apologize to everybody. The thing was failing because my library did not have that particular function in R 2.12. The library actually loads fine, just the function is missing.
Merry Christmas to those celebrating.

If you start RGui some packages are loaded that are not loaded if you start via --vanilla, but we cannot know more without information about mypack.
