It is working as documented: there is no on.exit set for str, is there?
'sys.on.exit()' retrieves the expression stored for use by
'on.exit' in the function currently being evaluated. (Note that
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this differs from S, which returns a list of expressions for the
current frame and its parents.)I see you have looked at PR#269, but did not notice the crucial difference: here the current function is str (it is evaluating its arguments), not soe.test.

'sys.on.exit()' doesn't seem to be working, since R1.7.1 at least:
Please read the FAQ: we don't want R-bugs clogged up with `doesn't seem to be working' reports, and we do say so.
soe.test <- function() { on.exit( cat( 'In exit code\n')) str( sys.on.exit()) # should display "language..." I think 12 }
(A similar bug was apparently fixed for version 0.65!)
One difference being that PR#269 was a bug, and this is not.
