[Rd] optim: why is REPORT not used in SANN?

Hello,

I wonder why the control parameter REPORT is not supported by method 
SANN. Looking into optim.c I found an internal constant:

#define STEPS 100

... and decreasing this to 10 helped me fine-tuning the annealing 
parameters in an actual problem.

Is there any reason why not passing nREPORT to samin and setting 
something like:

STEPS = nREPORT / tmax
