Hi Diego,

Thanks for looking into this and coming up with something that is
reproducible.  It does look to be a defficiency in R, but it may not
be one that is easy to resolve.

At least understanding the likely culprit should help to avoid having
to restart R during a long session; be careful not to interrupt when
loading annotation data environments. :-\

The SQLite-based annotation data packages, which we expect to be in
the next release won't have this problem. [Although honestly, there
may be other issues to be discovered in terms of how RSQLite interacts
with ^C, however, we are more likely to be able to produce fixes in
this case]

Best,

+ seth
