As you may know, I have been building and uploading both pre-1.9.0 version of R itself (in the 1.8.1.cvs.$DATE packages, currently at 1.8.1.cvs.20040331) and of all (previously packaged) packages in $CRAN/src/contrib/1.9.0/ which includes nlme. As for your problem, a simple upgrade to the newest versions should do, see below. If you go with Debian 'sid' aka 'unstable', I do recommend a quick 'apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade' every few days. The problem described here has been reported and fixed before. See below for a log, it simply works if you have the current components.
