This has been reported a while back:

http://r-bugs.biostat.ku.dk/cgi-bin/R/Graphics?id=6777;expression=barplot;user=guest

which also suggests a workaround.

tN <- table(Ni <- rpois(100, lambda=5))
r <- barplot(as.vector(tN), col='gray')

Alternatively, barplot2 in the gregmisc package should also work.

library(gregmisc)
tN <- table(Ni <- rpois(100, lambda=5))
r <- barplot2(tN, col='gray')
