[R] apply problem

[ggrothendieck@yifan.net]

> data(iris)

# iris3 is first 3 rows of iris
> iris3 <- iris[1:3,]

# z compares row 1 to each row of iris3 and is correctly 
computed
> z <- c(F,F,F)
> for(i in seq(z)) z[i] <- identical(iris3[1,],iris3[i,])
> z
[1]  TRUE FALSE FALSE

# this should do the same but is incorrect
> apply(iris3,1,function(x)identical(x,iris3[1,]))
    1     2     3 
FALSE FALSE FALSE 

What's wrong here?
