I think Chuck Celand has pretty well answered it: Don't worry
about the warning, since I'm pretty sure it is generated when
prelim.norm is calculating something else (e.g. the covariance
matrix) and it is not related to generating prelim.norm(X)$r
which is the list of patterns and the numbers of times they occur.

Best wsihes,
Ted.
