What is bicor()? From the WGCNA package? Perhaps the package is doing something 
incompatible with the long vector support in R 3.0.0. You need to report such 
queries to the maintainer. So far we have no evidence that the bug is in R 
itself, and you're not giving us anything reproducible to investigate.

This seems entirely speculative. Please stick to the facts.
