Right, doesn't seem like a problem with your package, but probably with 
your setup. To be sure the package is ok, you can use the Winbuilder 
service first to check the package, and if it checks fine, only then 
start debugging your setup.

For me checking the CRAN version of your package on R-devel on Windows 
works fine, using "R CMD check" all with defaults.

R-devel (as well as R 4.2) no longer supports 32-bit targets so the 
"arch - i386" above looks suspicious. A mismatch in the number of 
arguments to an internal function may suggest that some parts of your 
installation are outdated. Perhaps if you start with an empty package 
library, the problem would go away?

Best,
Tomas
