Please try to load/attach your package before trying to check it -- you
will get more informative error messages from library(eha). The message is
almost certainly spurious, because your package is too badly broken to be
loaded.  We've seen quite a few examples in package testing, but have not 
yet managed to find a way to trap the more informative message.
