First hit on <http://www.rseek.org/> with: functions mixture gaussians

<http://research.stowers-institute.org/efg/R/Statistics/MixturesOfDistributions/index.htm>

Task Views:

nor1mix: Normal (1-d) Mixture Models (S3 Classes and Methods)
<http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/R/CRAN/>  

In the nor1mix documentation, Mächler recommends the mclust package
