Damn damn damn.  I think I must.  Or we must refine it.

CCing the author of the patch. Looked like a good idea at the time, probably
wasn't.

Odd things is that I too just built dozens of packages for the R 3.0.0
transition and didn't get bitten.

And ... of course I just upload R 3.0.0-1 a few hours ago :-/
