[Rd] R-2.5.0 and unlink/wildcards

It seems unlink doesn't work with wildcards in 2.5.0. I've tried  
R-2.5.0 under gnu/linux from source and the Mac binary from att  
research. Example:

 > dir()
[1] "bgx.Rnw" "bgx.pdf" "run.1"
 > unlink("run.*",recursive=T)
 > dir()
[1] "bgx.Rnw" "bgx.pdf" "run.1"
 > unlink("run.1",recursive=T)
 > dir()
[1] "bgx.Rnw" "bgx.pdf"


Cheers,

Ernest
