Is the following expected behavior?

> mkext <- inline::cfunction(language="C", body='return R_MakeExternalPtr(NULL, install("tag"), R_NilValue);')
> x <- mkext()
> y <- x
> attr(y, "foo") <- "bar"
> attributes(x)
$foo
[1] "bar"

I would expect that modifying y's attributes should not affect x.

[Tested on R version 3.3.3 x86_64-apple-darwin16.4.0 (64-bit)]

Thanks,


Patrick
