Thanks Iñaki. I was unaware of rhub. Nice tool! Unfortunately, their debian machine odes not reproduce the error. I have written the R Submission crew to see if I can submit a package with a print(str(mss.10)) call to see the output in the examples log, or if that is an abuse of CRAN submission. We'll see what they say.
