I have no idea what 'timeout' means, but that *should* take an
extraordinarily long time (it is at least quadratic in the input
length). This is the point of hashing -- you *need* hash=TRUE, and
you should probably also set 'size' in new.env.
There was an obvious missing PROTECT in this function.
I do wonder if you are yet familiar with the debugging tools described
in 'Writing R Extensions' -- please do use them before reporting.

Hi,
The following code produces different kinds of problems depending
on which platform you run it:
x <- as.list(1:200000)
names(x) <- paste("A", 1:200000, sep="")
e <- list2env(x)
Timeout on Linux, crash on Mac and Windows, with R 2.12.0 and
current R devel.
The "multi-assign" mode (i.e. when the 'envir' arg is supplied)
doesn't seem to have this problem.
Cheers,
H.
