[R] Building S4-classes, documents

[TEMPL Matthias]

Hi Seth,

Thank you very much! (and thanks to Matthias Kohl and Sean Davis)
My first problems in building a minimal S4-class package are solved with
the help of your hints.
Especially making R CMD INSTALL before trying R CMD check was a very
good idea!

Matthias
