Wrapping the suggestions into a function:

> sameLength <- function(...) {
+     n <- sapply(list(...), length)
+     all(n == n[1])
+ }
> sameLength(double(1), double(2))
[1] FALSE
> sameLength(double(1), double(1), list(x=1))
[1] TRUE

[Note that if you have lots of objects to compare, length(unique(...))==1
will not be as efficient.]
