I think the most practical method would be to produce a
packageStartupMessage() from the .onAttach function of your package if
you detect that the package has been compiled without OpenMP support:

Your C code will have to detect it and provide this information to the
R code. WRE 1.6.4 says:

<https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-exts.html#Portable-C-and-C_002b_002b-code>

Similarly, any time you use #pragma omp ... or call
omp_set_num_threads(), it needs to be wrapped in #ifdef _OPENMP ...
#endif.

Additionally, it is important to make sure that during tests and
examples, your OpenMP code doesn't use more than two threads:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html
This is in place because CRAN checks are run in parallel, and a package
that tries to helpfully use all of the processor cores would interfere
with other packages being checked at the same time.
