[datatable-help] data.table 1.4

[Matthew Dowle]

Quick update :

lin32 - build log last night has picked up rev 80, OK.
        check log patched: 'Logfile for data.table not available'
        check log devel: 'Logfile for data.table not available'
        install.packages() worked fine for me just now

lin64 - build log last night has picked up rev 80, OK.
        check log patched (i.e. R 2.10.1) : OK
        check log devel (i.e. R 2.12.0) : error 'y argument is missing'
        install.packages() : should be ok.

win32 - build log early this morning : still at rev 61, with errors
        check log yesterday afternoon : still at rev 61, with errors

mac   - build log : still at rev 61,  OK
        check log : picked up rev 80, OK

Not a lot I can do until the r-forge guys get back to us. At least it
seems ok (but not perfect) on the linux and mac side.  Just windows that
hasn't updated at all.
