Aha, so *that's* how to reproduce it. 

One thing that catches my eye is that 
tools::checkVignettes has

    outConn <- textConnection("out", "w")
    sink(outConn, type = "output")
    sink(outConn, type = "message")
....
           for (f in rfiles) {
            yy <- try(source(f))

and demo.R does extensive manipulation of an object called "out".

Perhaps it helps to do something like local(source(f, local=TRUE))? Or
maybe put local=TRUE in the textConnection() call.
