R_GetCurrentEnv() not working as intended
Dear all, I am attempting to use `R_GetCurrentEnv()` to return the current environment within C code, but it seems to always return the global environment. Specifically, I would like to use it as an argument to R_NewEnv() so it is created with the correct enclosing environment. I also have functions in the environment that reference symbols in the closure and I would also like to use `R_GetCurrentEnv()` as an argument to `SET_CLOENV()`. My workaround at the moment is to pass `environment()` as one of the arguments to the `.Call()`. For the actual code I am referring to: https://github.com/shikokuchuo/nanonext/blob/main/src/aio.c#L516-L535 where I am currently passing `environment()` as 'clo' whereas ideally I would be able to use `R_GetCurrentEnv()` instead. There is an open Bugzilla report from 2020 that says `R_GetCurrentEnv()` only returns the base namespace from within a `.Call()`, however I see that the proposed patch has already been adopted in the R source. It seems that the function was introduced (fairly) recently in R 3.6, presumably for such uses. I would like to know if this is not the case or else confirmation that this is an outstanding bug. Thanks, Charlie
