One last thing, concerning the use of promises. If I do install, findVar, without forcing the resulting promise, and then construct the call, I get a failure:
Replacing findfun by findvar works in this specific case. See below. Could someone explain why findfun works while findvar doesn't? I've been looking at the source code in envir.c, and it isn't really clear why one way works while the other doesn't. Is it possible, given a variable/function name, to determine if it should use findFun or findVar? This would be helpful for the polymorphic static typing of R values.
