The problem I am having is in writing the function and wrapping it
around model.fr

For single numbers try this:
x <- +0
y <- -0
identical(x, y) && identical(1/x, 1/y) # FA

Hi Jeff,
As mentioned in my message, I *did* replicate on another platform.
One platform was running linux in a VM, the other running MacOSX, on two
different physical machines. The problem did not replicate on a PowerPC
box, so if it is a bug with intel chips, I think it's also appropriate t
