The conclusion of the conversation represented by #300 (there and in slack) is that storing type as an attribute of these data frames is too brittle. The row subsetting and binding those data frames go through makes it hard to retain the attributes correctly. I'm closing that PR in deference to some larger rethinking of how type gets passed around.

Probably also what's going on in #291. That also seems like a case where the specific combination of packages to be installed from various sources was unlucky.

Also occurs for deldir and polyclips (by way of trying to install ggforce):

#> Installing 2 packages: deldir, polyclip
#> Error in if (type == "binary") { : argument is of length zero

It is too fragile and gets removed when rbinding remotes together. This was previously masked because of the order of the rbind, but that was changed in 8419037 which exposed this bug.
