Hi Max, Thank you for your reply and feedback. As an aside, I recently released a package which also adopted the new \doi{} macro, and it seems to have passed CRANs tests and is now available. So, I suspect it's not related to this inherently macro, though perhaps you are right it could be related to a missing dependency. What, exactly, I'm not sure, and tracking it down seems nearly impossible at the moment....
