[Rcpp-devel] problems while upgrading to Rcpp 0.11.2

I think I got to the bottom of the issue. I was using the -O0 option
instead of the -O2 option while compiling the code. Including the -O2
option resolved the issue.

Thanks

So you may be doing something different in the build process for your

local

directory.  You need to work out what is different.

Can you please post this __on the list__ for a continued thread there?
