Thanks Bert.

I am CC-ing this reply to the r-help list since your suggestion is *NOT* 
complete baloney at all!

<SNIP>

The package has no dependencies as such, but "Imports" a number of 
packages.  I tried loading these, one by one, and when I did

library(brms)

I got the message that was triggered by loading my package.  So that is 
the source of the problem.  If it is indeed a problem.

The question remains:  is this message something that I (or the 
maintainer of brms) should be worried about?

cheers,

Rolf
