Why do you think there is a bug in R rather than in your package? (I
assume that it is a package of yours, at least it's not on CRAN).

How should we be able to track this problem for you? You don't specify
your computing platform and give us no examples we could try to
reproduce.

Does running latex on parcv-manual.tex in a shell work?
