So please follow the posting guide at
http://www.r-project.org/posting-guide.html, to wit
'f you are using an old version of R and think it does not work
properly, upgrade to the latest version and try that, before posting. If
possible, try the current R-patched or R-devel version of R (see the FAQ
for details), to see if the problem has already been addressed.'
It has been.

For 'R CMD check', it appears that option '--outdir' is not recognized

-o, --outdir=DIR directory used for logfiles, R output, etc.
(default is 'pkg.Rcheck' in current directory,
where 'pkg' is the name of the package checked)
Example:
mkdir foo
# Check output is written to foo/
R CMD check -o foo pkg_0.1.tar.gz
# Option is ignored and check output is written to bar.Rcheck/
R CMD check --outdir=foo pkg_0.1.tar.gz

I get this with:

12.04 and 13.04).

Should I report this to http://bugs.r-project.org/?
Did you? If not, please do (or tell me to if you don't have time). I
see nothing in News.Rd on trunk.
