subscripting in list() (PR#186)

In R, (0.64 Binary, Linux 5.0) I tried this command and get an error
message:

> mylist <- list()
> mylist[[1]]
Error in mylist[[1]] : subscript out of bounds

It thus makes my Splus programs un-runable, because in SPlus 4.0 or 3.4,
you have

> mylist <- list()
> mylist[[1]]
NULL

instead of a stop message.


Thanks,
vincent
