Both "show.output.on.console" and "invisible" are Windows only arguments
of system(). This is a bug in the package that needs to be reported to
the package maintainer, Diethelm Wuertz (CCing).

It means that the package meintainer decided not to run this part of the
examples by R CMD check, hence it is unchecked (and nobody traced the
bug before).
