'x' were weights but this turned out to be wrong.

I don't know exactly what interpretation you have in mind
for weights, but if you assign the value of hist() to a
variable tmp, you can then assign the component tmp$counts

hist returns a list, to which you can apply your weights.
Alternatively, in R 1.7.1, typing hist [without the quotes ()]
at a commands prompt reveals a call to UseMethod. 'methods(hist)'
identifies functions hist.default and hist.POSIXt. Typing
hist.default prodused the R code,
