Thank you, Ben!
"Here" is perfect for such a small change.
I have fixed the sources, including those for 'R 3.2.2 RC' (RC
:= Release candidate; release in ca 5 days)
(R-bugzilla would have been fine, too. It's slightly more work
for you and R core, but in general things there should less
easily fall between the cracks)
