When R code provided to Evaluate R Statements tries to load an R library installed by the user, it fails if the user was not an administrator when they installed the package

Description (last modified by jjr8) (diff)

The problem is that, due to #374, rpy is looking for the per-user R library in the user's profile directory (e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\R\win-library\2.9) rather than in the user's documents directory (e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\My Documents\R\win-library\2.9). When RGui.exe installs packages, it installs them to this second location. Because rpy is looking in the first location, it does not find them.
