Just a hunch, and I'm not running "R" yet (I should, since I'm using
some stats stuff in school right now), but maybe that "relative
difference" of a hundred-millionth isn't close enough to the zero that
the checker expects?  That's what I'm think the "TRUE" indicates.  The
only way to tell for sure is to hack the logic within the "check:"
dependency section in the makefile until you find the issue.
