I am sorry (about both the duplicate report and the comment).

I don't know what happened with the duplication - but as you see
I replied to both r-devel and r-bugs in the same e-mail, and the
one arriving back via r-devel did have the right subject with
the PR#9202 at the end, and the other copy via r-bugs didn't and
got a new one. It seems somewhere during in the round-trip
over-long subject lines get truncated and/or a new-line inserted in
the middle. May worth investigating...
