Subject: order(1, na.last=NA) fails (PR#1913)
Message-ID: <200208152028.WAA00080@pubhealth.ku.dk>


R> order(1, na.last=NA)
Error in apply(sapply(z, is.na), 1, any) : 
	dim(X) must have a positive length

This bug appears unrelated to PR#1906, and so the fix of 8/15 doesn't help.
It comes from the line inside order():

   ok <- !apply(sapply(z, is.na), 1, any)

where z=list(1) in my example.  sapply() returns a single-element vector, not a
matrix, making apply() unhappy.  This might work better:

   nas <- sapply(z, is.na)
   ok <- if (is.matrix(nas)) !apply(nas, 1, any) else !any(nas)
