R devel - Feb 2017 - Lack of 'seq_len' in 'head' in 'stopifnot'

Function 'stopifnot' in R devel r72104 has this.
    head <- function(x, n = 6L) ## basically utils:::head.default()
	x[if(n < 0L) max(length(x) + n, 0L) else min(n, length(x))]

If definition like utils:::head.default is intended, the index of 'x'
should be wrapped in seq_len(...):
x[seq_len(...)]

You are right... that was "lost in translation" .

As  seq_len(1) is 1   and that seems to have been the only case
much exercised, nobody seems to have noticed the problem till
now ((this assumes people *would* report it if they noticed.
      Yes, "hope dies last"  ;-))

Thank you, this is amended now.
