After the discussions which really helped me understanding
the issues involved let me summarize some possibly surprising
behavior of as.POSIXlt and as.POSIXct and the print method of
class POSIXlt (the print method problem seems to be a Windows
only problem) in R 2.3.1
- as.POSIXlt and as.POSIXct
Thank you for this. Minimal self-contained code included below.
It is slightly modified from the original because brob objects have two
slots, both of which are needed by c().

A "brob" obect is represents a real number with two slots: "x" holds
its natural
logarithm; slot "positive" is Bool

A reasonable goal, but for 2.5.x, not 2.4.0, would be to extend a
mechanism already in place to allow setMethod() calls for functions in
the base package, even though those functions have no directly visible
generic function definition. The recent changes to method dispatch
should help.

As you may know from the R-devel list, things are very fluid re S4 just
now.
Which CRAN mirror did you use? Windows 2.4 packages are only just on the
master and may not have got to mirrors yet.
It does work for me compiling from source: you may want to try that.

Sounds like you don't have a version Matrix installed from source for
2.4.0. As mentioned earlier on this list, the caching mechanism has
changed for methods, and all packages need to be installed from source
to get the correct objects.
Works fine for me with an installation of Matrix from sou
