+        * src/attributes.cpp: Fix attributes behavior with

+        (e.g. NumericVector v = NumericVector(10)) gives a default
+        value of 'numeric(10)' at the R level). Also make NAs
+        keep their type when exposed to R.

       attribute from compiling.

+      arguments, and also allow constructors of a given size
+      (e.g. \code{NumericVector v = NumericVector(10))} gives a default
+      value of \code{numeric(10)} at the R level). Also make NAs preserve
