 (At least) some R packages can no longer be installed.

 This is due to upstream's change of management of "lazy loading" : some
 packages version available through default repositories now expect to use
 this new mecaism, which is not available in R 2.14.0.

 The best solution is probably to update the R version shipping with Sage.
 I have packaged  and tested it, but my solution is not yet complete :
 "make ptestlong" gives me two (expectable failures) :


 {{{
 sage -t  --long -force_lib devel/sage/sage/interfaces/r.py
 **********************************************************************

 2 items had failures:
    1 of   4 in __main__.example_16
    1 of   4 in __main__.example_80
 ***Test Failed*** 2 failures.
 }}}

 which I do not know (yet) how to fix, because they involve patching
 doctests for r.py. Any pointer would be appreciated.
