(2) I see no request in either the RWinFAQ or the RFAQ for a post-mortem
dump. I also see no link in the R-Bugs page to the either of these FAQs,
nor a list of bugs that should not be reported. If you wish users to
follow a specific protocol for reporting bugs (and the RFaq section 9
does not request port-mortem dumps, or list bugs nots to report),
specifying this protocol on the R-Bugs page will expedite matters.

I think that was a typo: Brian meant "..shows you how to..", not
"..have to..". We wouldn't require that in general. However, I
can't
find any description in there of how to use dr.Watson et al. either. (??)
