I've installed R-2.14.0 from source on CentOS and on Kubuntu and in
both cases, I see something I've never seen before.  Comments in
locally written functions disappear.  I put comments there for a
purpose and I'd like to keep them.  I can still use older versions of
R without that happening.  Nothing I noticed in the NEWS file seems to
indicate a change that could be related to that phenomenon.

(Using ESS, it's more complicated but I figure if I get it working from
the terminal the rest will work.)

Since nobody else has reported such a problem, it might be something
in my local settings that's behind what I'm seeing but I can't guess
where I should look.

Suggestions welcome.

It *doesn't* happen to me.  Ergo it would appear to be peculiar
to your particular set-up.

What does options()$keep.source say?  (Mine says "TRUE".)

         cheers,
