# create a function which accepts NULL argument
foo <- function(x, y) {
if (is.null(y)) y <- "default foo"
attr(x, "foo") <- y
x
}
# create a function which utilizes 'foo'
testSrc <- function() {
x <- 1:3
x <- foo(x, NULL)
x
}
# this works fine
testSrc()
# this fails
testNoSrc <- utils::removeSource(testSrc)
testNoSrc()
# removeSource removes NULL from the 'foo' call
print(testNoSrc)

I traced back the bug to this row in removeSource:
(line 33 in sourceutils.R)
part[[i]] <- recurse(part[[i]])
it should be (IMHO):
part[i] <- list(recurse(part[[i]]))

# create a function with the above patch
rmSource <- function (fn) {
stopifnot(is.function(fn))
if (is.primitive(fn))
return(fn)
attr(fn, "srcref") <- NULL
attr(body(fn), "wholeSrcref") <- NULL
attr(body(fn), "srcfile") <- NULL
recurse <- function(part) {
if (is.name(part))
return(part)
attr(part, "srcref") <- NULL
attr(part, "wholeSrcref") <- NULL
attr(part, "srcfile") <- NULL
if (is.language(part) && is.recursive(part)) {
for (i in seq_along(part))
part[i] <- list(recurse(part[[i]]))
}
part
}
body(fn) <- recurse(body(fn))
fn
}
# test
( testNoSrc2 <- rmSource(testSrc) )
testNoSrc2()
