Subject: split nukes names() (PR#371)
Message-ID: <199912100002.BAA07873@pubhealth.ku.dk>

> split(c(a=1,b=2),c(1,2))
$"1"
[1] 1

$"2"
[1] 2

The documentation does not *promise* that names will survive, but in
Splus3.4, they do. This broke a function that worked under S+ that used
the names attribute of elements in the components returned by split.
