R-package preparation --as-cran behaving unexpectedly

Dear all, I am trying to submit an R-package to CRAN. In preparation I do run R_INSTALL_TAR=/bin/tar R CMD check --as-cran parallelize.dynamic_0.9.tar.gz and the command finishes without warnings or errors. As a final output I get NOTE: There was 1 note. See ?.../Rpackages/parallelize.dynamic/parallelize.dynamic.Rcheck/00check.log? for details. The file contains the standard output of the 'R CMD check ...' call precisely. If I submit this very tarball to CRAN I get rejected with warnings as reported from '--as-cran' checks there. In my case they are valid warnings about assignments in .GlobalEnv which I can certainly fix. However, my concern is about the discrepancy between the outputs of 'R CMD check --as-cran' runs locally as compared to the run on the CRAN-site. Any help is appreciated. I am running R version 2.15.2 (2012-10-26) -- "Trick or Treat" Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit)
Presumably CRAN is now running checks from 3.0.0 (which was released today, and has been available for testing for more than a month). I wouldn't be surprised if those are different from the 2.15.2 tests. Duncan Murdoch
