It is new test (thanks to Kurt Hornik). Those are all incorrect, and will result in incorrect output (or at least, not the intended output). It is \note \alias (the warning I see is \alais) \details and there is no \warning (etc), you need \section(Warning}{...} Previously (as Rd is not a defined format with e.g. a DTD), almost all errors were silently ignored. All the reports I have looked at are genuine user errors. (The same applies to the recent subdirectory checks.) -- Brian D.
