Maaaaybe - I had this note in RSQLite, and CRAN seemed ok with my explanation:

* checking compiled code ... NOTE
  File ‘/Users/hadley/Documents/databases/RSQLite.Rcheck/RSQLite/libs/RSQLite.so’:
    Found ‘___stderrp’, possibly from ‘stderr’ (C)
      Object: ‘sqlite-all.o’

  This is in C code from the embedded SQLite database.
