[Rd] R_CallMethodDef: 'type' and 'style' fields?

[Steve Jaffe]

Hmm, I should have read the .C documentation more carefully still. I can't
use DUP=FALSE when passing character vectors. In that case, since specifying
the style doesn't suppress copying I guess my only option is to use the more
complicated .Call API, which I naturally was hoping to avoid.
