Loading cannot please both R CMD check and devtools?

[richfitz]

In R/zzz.R, the module is loaded. If done via loadRcppModules(), R CMD check is happy, but devtools cannot generate the documentation. If done via loadModule("tree", TRUE) within .onLoad(), R CMD check cannot run set_sane_gsl_error_handling within .onLoad().

This is related to issues between the devtools and Rcpp packages and may be resolved at some point:

It would be easy enough to drop the Rcpp wrapper here and just use .Call in the .onload, provided things were properly set up as C calls. I think that RcppExport does that for us?

Closing as horribly out of date, and will go away once we drop modules (e.g. #86)
