I just built a source package on a 0.10.1 box for the first time; previously, I'd always built it on 0.9.15 boxes. I was surprised to see that I now need to do string comparisons to character SEXP's using the CHAR() macro; previously, I'd been able to use the SEXP from a StringVector directly.<div>
