Summary: syntax error executing functions line by line

Initial Comment:
Using the "execute-current-line"-button, R throws a syntax error for all functions spanning more than 3 lines. Maybe a problem parsing newlines?

Examples: 

working:
test <- function() {
  return(rnorm(100))
}


syntax-error:
test <- function() {
  x <- rnorm(100)
  return(x)
}

Yes, a problem with newlines. Those would be omitted in the command that
actually gets run. Therefore, what gets actually sent to R in the example
is:

test <- function() {  x <- rnorm(100)  return(x)  }

which indeed is a syntax error.

Fixed in the development version. Too bad, 0.4.7 is already released with
the bug.
