Why do you consider this to be a bug: you are using matrix indexing, and
there is no element c(1,3) of x?
This form of indexing is covered in 'An Introduction to R'.

Setting a matrix is a function - the failure occurs only on 2 X 2 matrices.
x-matrix(1:4,nrow=2)

[,1] [,2]
[1,]13
[2,]24
x[x]-2
Error: subscript out of bounds

A third form of indexing is via a numeric matrix with the one column
for each dimension: each row of the index matrix then selects a single
element of the array, and the result is a vector.
Thus the result in this case should be a vector with element 1,3 as its
