Thanks, I had just discovered this myself by accident.

The problem is that the sources.list line is seen as having a syntax

it. I have tried several (including the one you suggest) already.
Here is the offending line from my /etc/apt/sources.list file
deb http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ quantal
Chris,
This (your) version has incorrect syntax:
deb http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ quantal
This works:
deb http://cran.us.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/ quantal/

You need a trailing "/", as per the instructions on CRAN.
Michael
