[R] dump not evaluating promises?

[D Sonderegger]

dump and dput but have the same behavior but dump has an extra option
'evaluate'. From the documentation, 'evaluate=TRUE' looks like it should
force promises to be evaluated, ie convert 1:6 to be c(1,2,3,4,5,6).  

I think that either my understanding of what a 'promise' is and what it
means to be evaluated is flawed, or the evaluate option in the dump command
is broken.
