Well, let's put it this way...
If I say: perldoc PDL::R the synopsis begins:
use PDL::R;
pnorm(.1,0.0,1.0);
If I execute:
perl -e '
use PDL::R;
pnorm(.1,0.0,1.0);
'
I get a segmentation fault.
Note that this also happens with the PDL that existed before I took
it over.
I'm leaving the current R support in place, as a courtesy, but debugging
this is pretty low on my priority list.
If upstream PDL is going to merge in support for R then I'll be happy
to take a more active hand. But, if this is merely a stopgap, I'm not
very interested in pouring effort into it.
