++ in reaction to mail by B.Ripley Feb 20, 19/ explanation by T. Kalibera, that our code to 
+  look into system.call() stack was buggy and failed in staged installation, we revised code to .modifyqgaps completely;
+  we now compute p(obj)(gaps) and check if any argument p of q(obj) falls within the gap range and then shift it to either 
+  the left or right endpoint of the gap acc. to args lower.tail and leftright. To avoid redoing this whenever slot gaps 
+  is changed, we store the unmodified q(obj) function in an internal variable ..q0fun which can also be used 
+  (if existant in the env() of q(obj)) to revert the gaps modification, and any gaps modification, instead of starting 
+  from q(obj) starts with ..q0fun (if this exists); otherwise, i.e., if ..q0fun does not exist, it uses q(obj) and 
+  afterwords stores the old q(obj) as ..q0fun ...
