Can you (Frederick, Peter, Keith, but ideally others, too)
confirm that you don't see any problems anymore, when building a
version of R-devel from sources that are newer 
than (or equal to)  svn revision 70632 (2016-05-19 10:59:51, see below)?

I'm asking because the question is open if these should be
"back ported" to R 3.3.0 patched or not.

Best regards,
Martin
