Hi Phil, Thanks for the bug report.

I don't | see similar behaviour in Solaris or x86 Debian. I'm puzzled. As you got this from the pre-built deb, the exact same compile options etc pp applied as did for x86, powerpc, sparc, ... yet nobody noticed it there. Also, you could try the never 2.1.0 pre-release that is unstable since Tuesday (presuming an amd64 binary has been created). I suspect that this may be more of an amd64 terminal emulation bug than an R, so I am leaning towards closing it as far as Debian and its R package are concerned. Could you live with that ? I'll also CC Peter who, as I recall, has been using R on amd64 for quite some time. Any idea, Peter?
