R-beta: what to do here?

[Robert Gentleman]

This example works in both R (and the proto-type)

> x<-1:10
> y<-2^(31)-1
> w<-x+y
>  w==y
 [1] F F F F F F F F F F
>  v<-as.integer(w)
>  v==y
 [1] T T T T T T T T T T


I expect that there should be a warning when as.integer truncates by more
than 1.......
