Yes, and it should fail or return NA, as the required information is not
available. The problem is that it had logical NAs not numeric NAs for the
center component.
#3682 points out something that is on the help page: if you supply covmat
as a matrix (and not a covariance list) there is no information on the
centring done and x is ignored.
