Error: withCallingHandlers crashing R

Question

I've been using plyr-based function summarySE and ddply for several months without any problem. Today when I ran my extremely basic routine in R some error message showed up and made R crash.

Here is an example code and the error I get before R crashes:

install.packages("plyr")
library(plyr)
results<-data.frame(Depth=rbind("Surface","Bottom"),DO=(runif(10,4,6)))
ddply(results, .(Depth), summarise,
mean = round(mean(DO), 2),
sd = round(sd(DO), 2),
min = min(DO),
max = max(DO))

Error in withCallingHandlers(tryCatch(evalq((function (i):
object '.rcpp_warning_recorder' not found

I read that withCallingHandlers is a function to deal with error messages, it shouldn't give me any error during ddply usage. Does anyone know how to fix it? I have tried reinstalling plyr but had no success on this issue.
It was working 14 hours ago, therefore this error makes no sense at all to me... Thanks!

Edit: I have also tried to install plyrfrom the source as suggested here but it didn't work as well, I still get the same error message.

I updated the package "Rcpp" and now it is working for me. install.packages("Rcpp")
