R devel - Jan 2007 - "rep" missing from methods:::.BasicFunsList

With:

R version 2.4.1 Patched (2007-01-22 r40548)

"rep" is missing from methods:::.BasicFunsList, causing 
methods:::genericForPrimitive("rep") to fail, which in turn causes 
setMethod("rep", ...) to fail. (setGeneric("rep") of course
fails as it
should, saying that rep is a primitive and methods can be set).

Here's the fix:

build_main at mambo:/vobs/products/R> gdiff -ub 
src/library/methods/R/BasicFunsList.R@@/main/LATEST 
src/library/methods/R/BasicFunsList.R
