[BioC] arrayQualityMetrics error and question

Hi Wolfgang,
The problem hasn't really resolved itself. I can't update any further,
since I'm having trouble installing arrayQualityMatrics with R-2.14 on
the server I have access to. (beadarray, which is a requirement, needs
R>=2.13) Cairo fails to install, giving two errors:
cairotalk.c:894: error: 'CAIRO_EXTEND_PAD' undeclared (first use in
this function)
cairotalk.c:322: error: 'CAIRO_SURFACE_TYPE_IMAGE' undeclared (first
use in this function)
I can install both fine on my own computer, however, but I do not have
enough memory to process the files myself. Are there any options
besides spatial=FALSE to reduce memory usage?
Here's the output of sessionInfo()
