can't be made into an error? I realise it was there in S-PLUS, but
since it produces a warning there can't be many examples on CRAN or
Bioconductor using it, and I can't think of any situation where it
would be used deliberately.
It produces a warning, not an R CMD check warning. There are lots of
instances on CRAN, for example when running the examples for
CollocInfer DiceOptim FitAR LaplacesDemon MethComp OUwie ROptEst

arulesViz caret cyclones depth disp2D gstat hyperSpec igraph
igraph0 iid influence irtoys isotone ldDesign libamtrack lqmm

rsem sfsmisc spam spatstat survival tcltk2 tsDyn
let alone tests and vignettes.
I caught some some similar ones in that search:
CollocInfer DiceOptim RandVar TeachingSampling hyperSpec igraph igraph0
influence lqmm mixtool phylobase polynom robustX sfsmisc spam survival
tcltk2 tsDyn
are exactly that warning. I think for example the one in 'survival' is
an error.
