I experimented by using ".NAME =" in a call to .Fortran()

I am definitely (!) using R version 2.15.1.
Yes, Peter told me the same.
Doing args(.Fortran) gives:
function (.NAME, ..., NAOK = FALSE, DUP = TRUE, PACKAGE, ENCODING)
NULL

If I replace ".NAME" by "name" in my call to .Fortran() everything works
smoothly.
Consequently: It looks to me like there is a bug here. An
inconsistency
between .Fortran() and ".Primitive(".Fortran")" perhaps.
There was a bug; it was fixed in August (also without a NEWS entry).
You shouldn't see it in R-patched, or 2.15.2, when that is released.
<SNIP>
I installed R-patched and experimented again. Now no error is thrown
when .Fortran()
is called with ".NAME=". However, neither is any error thrown when
..Fortran is called
with "name=".
Is this as it should be, or is there still something not quite right?
cheers,
Rolf
