Some parts of the R documentation seem pretty confusing. When R is launched, the
text "Natural language support but running in an English locale" appears. What
is this supposed to mean? It should probably be reworded or removed.

The text "[Package stats version 2.7.2 Index]" appears at the bottom of each
page. The "Index]" takes the user to the index. I believe that the developers
meant to just link "Index" (without the closing brackets). However, to make it
less confusing, it should look something like "[Package stats version 2.7.2]
[Index]" with two separate sets of brackets.
