... When `h(3)' is evaluated we see that its body is that of `g'.
Within that body `x' and `y' are unbound.
Is that last
I would like to define a function using symbols, but freeze the symbols
at their current values at the time of definition. Both symbols

issue. Consider this (R 2.4.0):

Sooner or later we are going to have to require iconv for fully functional
R installations.
The only systems we are aware of that do not come with a suitable iconv
(with support for Unicode charsets like UTF-8) are some older commercial
Unixen, and GNU libiconv works on those we know of.

I mentioned this twice already and no one answered;however, I am mentioning
this a third time since its a serious deficiency. The Rscript facility
that is upcoming in R is useful but on Windows one will often be relegated
to having two files: a batch file and an R file unless the -x switch
is imp
