Christian,

I've just been updating the code for a couple of packages and I got the
same "* checking for code/documentation mismatches ... WARNING" - although I
didn't get the syntax error bit. What I found it to be was that R CMD goes
through the R code files and picks out all the parameters to pass to a function,
then if it sees that there is an undocumented parameter flags a warning. I
certainly had a couple of undocumented parameters I hadn't noticed.

Yours may be the same sort of thing.

Regards, David.
