It's a bit difficult to help with so few details about your system and what
you did to build the new R. I can tell you that I did this same upgrade
today on a Slackware 13.37 x86_64 system, downloading and building the
package from slackbuilds.org with sbopkg, and R 2.13.1 works fine, and the R
executable is in /usr/bin, where you'd expect it to be.

To try to help you, I'd be interested in knowing the architecture and
version of the Slackware system you are running and seeing the result of

ls -l /var/adm/packages/R*

cat /var/adm/packages/R-2.13.1*

hash

and

echo $PATH

from the instance of bash giving you the error would be useful.
