It seems the combination of either/or/both const and & AND use of uvec
triggers this.  A base uvec vector seems to pass in fine, as does const ref
use of a normal int vector.

I think we are being tripped up by a partial conversion. We will try to get
to it.  In the meantime, maybe just avoid 'uvec' which has no direct R
counterpart.
