I am seeing very strange behaviour in R 3.2.0 patched (r68272) and a new build of R-devel. The sessioninfo() from the former is below.

If I stop it before the if and evaluate R_version_built_under, it looks fine. If I stop it there and evaluate R_version_built_under < "3.0.0" I get NA.

I don't see it on Ubuntu with a fresh R-devel:

I don't have r-patched handy or I'd try that too.

It doesn't actually need loadNamespace, it's string comparisons that fail.
