Here is what make Matrix builds. I guess this means a new Matrix 1.0-12 will be released. r57849 is dec 2011, and in any case, a conditional based on precise svn version seems a bad idea. I haven't pinned point why it broke in Oct 2012, probably co-incide with the switch of R_SVN_VERSION's data type in around that time. Just grep'ed for ".M.classEnv" to see where it comes from.
