Dear Philippe,
you've reported a known bug, the fix of which hadn't made it into 0.61.1
because the fix included substantial enhancements
(and we decided that only small or important fixes should go into patches).
Following is the current (0.62 prerelease) version of
RHOME/src/library/base/R/hist
[[BTW: If you dare to live on the bleeding edge,
you can always pickup the current development source from
<CRAN>/src/devel/R-snapshot.tar.gz
]]
Martin
