First check whether this has anything to do with R at all.
Does grep work from the command line? Looks like it is picking up a
shared library in /usr/local/lib, which is not valid. Googling for the
error message ("yes" is not part of it) suggests that this happens if
you run something under Linux emulation but pick up a native BSD
library, which in turn suggest that your path to binaries and/or
libraries might be messed up. Does this ring any bells?
