The default method for prcomp does not have an na.action argument: Usage:
prcomp(x, ...) ## S3 method for class 'formula': prcomp(formula, data = NULL, subset, na.action, ...) ## Default S3 method: prcomp(x, retx = TRUE, center = TRUE, scale. = FALSE, tol = NULL, ...) so this is as documented. In general only formula-based interfaces do have subset and na.action.
