Typing the following command into R --vanilla causes R to crash:

k <- intToUtf8(rep(1e3,1e7))


Brian Ripley has tracked this one down and a fix should appear shortly. The intToUtf8 code was written for reasonably small conversions, and it overflowed the stack when it tried to produce a 20 megabyte string there.

Do you have a real application that works with such large strings?

Many thanks for your help and best wishes,
