[R] spss.get. Warning with SPSS 14 dataset

I am using spss.get to import an SPSS database
"Data.sav", created with SPSS 14  :

df1 <- spss.get("C:/temp/Data.sav" , lowernames=TRUE,
            datevars = c("dateinte"))

I am getting this warning. I get the same warning with
read.spss.

Warning message:
C:/temp/Data.sav: Unrecognized record type 7, subtype
16 encountered in system file 

This is a stupid question but should I be worried
about it?  So far the data looks clean but it is not
my data base originally and I wondered if there is
anything specific that I should be checking for.

Thanks.
