[Rd] read.table underR2.7.0 (PR#11605)

[Holger.Mitterer at mpi.nl]

L.S.,

after having updated to 2.7.0, read.table seems
to have bug. I read in a file (see a view lines
pasted below) with:

phon = 
read.table("D:/Data/underspec/FULish/exp1/analysis/phoned111_200.txt", 
header = T);

the second variable, being "+" or "-" is converted into zeros (0)
and treated as a numerical variable.

Kind regards,
Holger
