Fixes #211, requires mrc-ide/dust#368 - before merge update branch pins
See the test case and #211 for a motivating example - if a model is created with
dust::dust()
then workers will fail to work because the alloc method (indeed, all the dust methods) are not found. This is because the model is created in a little fake package known only to the parent session. With the dust PR (mrc-ide/dust#368) we can easily load this fake package after deserialisation in a child process, with this function being a no-op if it is not needed. This PR just callsdust::dust_repair_environment
unconditionally after loading the serialised data.
