I posted links to five SPSS .sav files in response to a very similar problem
with read.spss().
Maybe you can use them to test the function.

So can we have both the output of sessionInfo() and a file that

I've uploaded sample SPSS sav files to my web space.
This file was made with SPSS verion 13.0 and does NOT crash R 2.8.1 on my
machine:

This is the same file, but saved with SPSS ver 17.0,
it does not crash but returns warnings:

Repeated trials have produced no crashes with SPSS sav files from version
10.0.5, 11.0, 12.0, or 14.0. SPSS sav files from Version 17.0 consistently
crashes R. Some version 13.0 files will crash R. The version 13.0 files that
crash R were sent to me by a colleague. My locally produced 13.0 files

produced by SPSS 17.0. It was from 13.0, specifically:

I have experience the same problem reading SPSS sav files using R 2.8.0 and
2.8.1 on Windows XP and Tinn-R version 2.1.1.6. I'm using SPSS 17.0 so it is
probably not related to SPSS version 11. I might add that I have been having
problems interfacing Tinn-R 2.1.1.6 with R although it may be unre
