I've updated to R-devel on my development machine and have lots of

due to out-of-order reloading. That is, if package "abc" depends on
package "xyz", then the reinstall of abc fails with a message that
version of xyz is "built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it".
So I ran it a second time, and got 32 failures. There should be a
better way.
There is, on the help page!
checkBuilt: If ‘TRUE’, a package built under an earlier minor version
of R is considered to be ‘old’.
As the NEWS file says, right at the top
Packages need to have been installed under this version of R.
(Pro tem, this is considered to be R-devel from April 2012.)
so my guess is that 'xyz' was not even installed under R-devel but 2.15.x.
We don't usually discuss development versions of R on R-help.
