Okay, I've tracked this down, and it's a stupid error I made when trying
to improve the error messages. I tried to make the parser remember its
position in a file when parsing it line by line so that it could report
on syntax errors properly; the trouble is that when it executes one of
those lines (like yours containing source()), it might re-enter the
parser. It needs to save and restore its state around that sort of call.
This will be fairly easy to fix, but I won't be able to do it until
tomorrow.

I just downloaded R-devel and when loaded it immediately segfaults. I'm not
sure how much or what sort of diagnostic info and can provide, but below is
my build script, my console output, and the output of uname -r. I am
currently dependent on the development version of a package, so I'd like to
get R-devel up and running if possible. I am sure there is more info I can
provide, but before deluging the list with unnecessary output, I thought I
would ask first what would be helpfu. Mark
