Has the browser functionality changed?  In particular, it seems like the
browser depth is often increasing in ways that it did not before.  For
example, I step through code and suddenly there's a change from
Browser[2]
to
Browser[3]

I'm not saying it is ESS related, but it seems like something in my setup
has changed and I don't understand what that change is...
