These both do a loadNamespace("tools").

Those are expected, and unrelated.
Actually, it is what helped me realize that the problem was with the
parsing of the call, rather than the arguments.

This shouldn't happen. In a previous post you listed a long list of
warnings about packages not being loaded; that's likely a serious
problem, but I don't know if it is the cause or a consequence of this
one. Something is seriously wrong with the startup. You could try
debugging setup_Rmainloop in <src/main/main.c>. to see if any
warnings are being generated there. There shouldn't be any.

This is during make - so there is very little - and the messages was
because I was forgetting to set LC_ALL=CC before starting ./bin/R
The file I am looking at is src/main/dcf.c (where the message is
generated) - your file suggestion may be better - skipping over a few
bread crumbs so to speak.
