What did you "modify"? How did you modify it?

How did you run it? If the "it" is just a single function that you  
altered after it was loaded into the workspace, then you should show  
us what you entered at the command line. If you were attempting to  
change the contents of a package in an R library and recompile it,  
then you should be reading:

http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html
