Not too hard to fix, the following buglet (new in 1.3.0),
but I'm about to leave for one week (of vacation)..
Here is an example (for Linux) :
lynne{sfs}214> cd /tmp
lynne{sfs}215> mkdir blue
lynne{sfs}216> cd blue
/tmp/blue
lynne{sfs}217> echo 'data(package = "mva")'|R-1.3.0 --vanilla

> data(package = "mva")
Data sets in package `mva':
Harman23.cor Harman Example 2.3
Harman74.cor Harman Example 7.4
ability.cov Ability and Intelligence Tests
Warning message:
package `blue' contains no datasets in: data(package = "mva")
>
-------------------
See the warning line at the very end.
It's because of the new data() feature of looking for data sets in the
current directory...
