I can confirm this behavior. I load rms from startup in my .Rprofile file and if mvtrnorm is missing I also get:

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘rms’ in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]):
 there is no package called ‘mvtnorm’

To me it signals a needt to let the package maintainer know about the issue.
