Stuck on building a package

Folks, I have a personal package which used to build fine. Today when I tried to build the package again, some errors popped up. Could you please help?
Generally questions about building packages are better in R-devel. When I paste the offending function into an R it works
correctly. But the package build breaks.

Error in parse(n = -1, file = file) : unexpected end of input at
63: ft=winsorised.left, winsorised.right=winsorised.right)
64: }
That's a syntax error in one of your files. Usually an unexpected end of input means you opened more braces than you closed, but there are other ways to get the same error: it just means the statement it was parsing was incomplete when it ran out of input. The line numbers 63 and 64 are probably not helpful; the package check process manipulates the code a bit before it passes it to the parser. (I think R-devel will give better error messages in this regard.) Duncan Murdoch
