[R] for loop question

[HEUMANN,JOHN (A-Loveland,ex1)]

In the windows version of R (1.3.0) is the following a bug, a
known problem, or expected behavior:

 > for (i in 1:2) {
 + for (j in i+1:3) {
 + print(j)
 + }
 + }
 [1] 2
 [1] 3
 [1] 4      ????
 [1] 3
 [1] 4      ????
 [1] 5      ????
 >

Conversely, the following behaves as expected:

 > for (i in 1:2) {
 + k <- i+1
 + for (j in k:3) {
 + print(j)
 + }
 + }
 [1] 2
 [1] 3
 [1] 3
 >

This is under NT4, SP5 using a pre-compiled binary from CRAN.

Thanks,
