The default method for prcomp does not have an na.action argument:
Usage:
prcomp(x, ...)
## S3 method for class 'formula':
prcomp(formula, data = NULL, subset, na.action, ...)
## Default S3 method:
prcomp(x, retx = TRUE, center = TRUE, scale. = FALSE, tol = NULL, ...)
so this is as documented. In general only formula-based interfaces do
have subset and na.action.

The following seems to be an bug in prcomp():
test <- ts( matrix( c(NA, 2:5, NA, 7:10), 5, 2)) test
Time Series: Start = 1 End = 5 Frequency = 1 Series 1 Series 2 1 NA NA 2 2 7 3 3 8 4 4 9 5 5 10
prcomp(test, scale.=TRUE, na.action=na.omit)
Erro en svd(x, nu = 0) : infinite or missing values in 'x'
prcomp(na.omit(test), scale.=TRUE, na.action=na.omit)
