Byte-compilation failure on different architectures / low-memory systems

Hugh Parsonage 
I believe a reproducible example is to simply have a very large object
defined literally (i.e. through structure() etc) in ./R/ . For
example, fBasics has a couple of files test-jbLM.R and test-jbTable.R
which are about 500 KB. For a given amount of RAM, I believe any
sufficiently large file will also break a package if byte compilation
is not turned off, regardless of architecture. A similar issue
occurred with package ddalpha, though the maintainer has since fixed
that I believe.
