We do not claim forwards compatibility of formats (that is that R 2.2.1 can read files written in later versions of R).

This makes the file > undreadable (at least in R2.2.1 but alos probably in S-Plus...) Please do read the help page: it points you to ?.deparseOpts for options for backwards and S-PLUS compatibility. The file is readable in R >= 2.5.0 and moreover is a more accurate representation than before. > I do not know in which respect both potential bugs are related.
