[Rd] r44608 fails make check-all in scatter.smooth example

[Prof Brian Ripley]

The cause is this:

r44607 | maechler | 2008-02-25 14:01:52 +0000 (Mon, 25 Feb 2008) | 2 lines

add Fortran type declarations in two cases, mainly for didactical reasons

The two declarations have been interchanged.  Fixed in 44609, I hope.
