Well, we hope not.  I guess we should scan for bug.report and edit,
and do the appropriate thing :-).

(for edit, "dump-object to buffer", for bugreport, dump everything
including mail, x-rated pictures, etc, into a file and send it to
r-bugs, until it's fixed in R -- who says you can't have the same kind
of fun with unix that the windows users had with melissa? :-) 

-- but seriously, what should the proper response be?  

R for unix then ought to have an --ess flag, the way Windows does, to
prevent such occurrences, and we can handle things appropriately (and
better!) in ESS.

best,
