That was a dumb bug in unsplit that was fixed in the development
sources a while back:
> unsplit
function (value, f)
{
len <- length(if (is.list(f)) f[[1]] else f)
x <- vector(mode = typeof(value[[1]]), length = len)
split(x, f) <- value
x
}
(the bug being that we used length(f) unconditionally in 1.5.1)
