[Rd] using function names as parameters (PR#469)

[hothorn@ci.tuwien.ac.at]

When using a function name as parameter, here date, the following happends: 

R> foo <- function(date=date()) cat(date, "\n")
R> foo()
Error in cat(date, "\n") : recursive default argument reference

R> foo("Good Morning!")
Good Morning!

works.
