[Rd] Trig.Rd typo (PR#9269)

[maechler at stat.math.ethz.ch]

Thank you, Robin (and Kjetil),
for spotting and reporting this so precisely.

This is a (somewhat rare) example of a bug that is trivial
enough to fix so the fix even made it into the  "deep frozen" 
release candidate (R 2.4.0, to be released tomorrow).

Martin Maechler, ETH Zurich
