[R] \Sweaveopts error

Actually, I spoke too soon.  The files process without obvious error, 
but keep.source=TRUE is ignored.  I have posted small files 
test1.Rnw and test2.Rnw that can be used to demonstrate the 
problems at:
  http://wwwmaths.anu.edu.au/~johnm/r/issues/

Sweave("test1")  ## includes SweaveOpts settings

Sweave("test2", keep.source=TRUE)   
                              ## SweaveOpts settings have been removed.

Comments do not appear in the LaTeX file that results, the code 
is reformatted and the graph from test1 goes into the working 
directory.

Notice also the NA that mysteriously appears in the second
line of code in output .tex file test2.tex

John.
