This is problematic if you only have only an 80% failure rate. Nevertheless, do you have a verbatim example that has failed at least once? If a particular formulation fails one time for you, does it always fail or can a certain syntax work 1 in 5 times?
If this is a mac-only problem you might get more help on that mailing list: *https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac*** You should install the most recent version of R and reproduce the problem there. When posting again, it would be helpful to supply the results of R.Version() for your setup. > > I know I can work around this issue programmatically by typing these commands > manually, but both of these features represent a nice function that R has > that I'd like to continue to use as was intended.
