[BioC] Having two parallel versions of BioC

[Oleg Sklyar]

If you are on Linux, install another R somewhere and use any other set
of packages there. If you are on Windows, you can simply copy your full
R directory to another directory and create new desktop/menu links.

Otherwise, you cannot have two versions of the same package in the same
R environment, so having another R installation is the only option
AFAIK.
