This continues the message "data.frame within a function (PR#9294)" that
was posted on 2006/10/12. Duncan Murdoch kindly replied. I'm using the
current version R 2.4.0, but the same issue exists. Just copy and paste
the following code under R, and compare the output of f1() and f2() and
the output of f3() and f4(). Does anybody have any idea? Thanks.
