Yes, no one said it would work with a bundle, did they?  (See
R CMD build --help.)

You can use it to help check packages within a bundle (you can then
ignore that message) and build the bundle by hand.

Now people other than me are building bundles, to make it work with
bundles is on the TODO list.
