Note that test.data.table() won’t necessarily work properly under a 
non-English locale, as some of the warnings or error messages may
come out translated. On my (Norwegian Nynorsk) Windows system, 31 tests 
failed. But if I start R from the command line by typing

  SET LC_ALL=C
  c:\Path-To-R...\Rgui.exe

everything worked fine.
