[BioC] Bug in vsn2

["M. Gonzalo Claros Díaz"]

I have found a bug in vsn2 function using RGList as input object.

I have constructed a RGList object that includes an "other" slot with  
read.maimages() from limma. When I use this object with vsn2 function,  
I get a very strange hanging error.

When I run the same data *without* the "other" slot (by reading them  
with different read.maimages parameters), it works fine.

This RGList works fine with vsn2:

	tg <- readTargets(targetF, row.names="SlideNumber")
	RG <- read.maimages(tg$FileName, source="genepix.median", wt.fun=  
FilterChip)

This RGList hangs vsn2 (but not the rest of calculations with limma  
and marray package funtions):

	RG2 <- read.maimages(tg$FileName, source="genepix.median", wt.fun=  
FilterChip, other.columns=c(snr532="SNR 532", snr635="SNR 635"))
