Could you explain what you are seeing that is wrong?

In R 2.7.2, which is what I have here, it looks ok, and the NEWS file doesn't 
list any changes since 2.7.1.

This is a CRITICAL bug!!!  I have verified it in R 2.8.1 for mac and
for windows.  The problem is with loess degree=0 smoothing.  For
example, try the following:

x <- 1:100
y <- rnorm(100)
plot(x, y)
lines(predict(loess(y ~ x, degree=0, span=0.5)))

This is obviously wrong.
