Running "as.character" on a large POSIXct causes a segfault on my 2.11
(2010-04-22) install.  Seems to crash at around 9e4 ... on OSX and Ubuntu at
least.

> invisible(as.character(Sys.time()+1:7e4))
> invisible(as.character(Sys.time()+1:8e4))
> invisible(as.character(Sys.time()+1:9e4))
Error: segfault from C stack overflow


> invisible(as.character(Sys.time()+1:5e5))
Error: segfault from C stack overflow

Thanks,
Jeff
