[BioC] DNAString: Error for long sequences

[Ann Hess]

I am having trouble creating long (~1000+ characters) DNAStrings. 
Specifically, I seem to get an error when R has to go to a new line in the 
command window when copy/pasting the sequence from an R script (with no 
breaks).  I recently upgraded R and BioConductor, but previously I did not have this problem.

Code and error is below.  Any suggestions?
