If I omit the \alias{houseprices} from the second line of a data
documentation file houseprices.Rd, R CMD check gives the warning message:

"
Undocumented code objects:
 houseprices
All user-level objects in a package should have documentation entries.
See the chapter 'Writing R documentation files' in manual 'Writing R
Extensions'.
"

I can build the package without error, but the help file for houseprices
is missing.  It would be good to have a message that gives a more
direct indication of what is wrong.

Running R CMD check on the directory at 
http://www.maths.anu.edu.au/~johnm/r/packages/testpkg
demonstrates the point.
