There are problems with the texi2dvi in the recently released texinfo
6.1. (The bug has been reported.) Avoid 6.1 if you can, but if not
setting the environment variable
R_TEXI2DVICMD=emulation
will enable R to build, including NEWS.pdf and all the vignettes.
We are working on a more complete workaround for R-devel and 3.2.4.
