Sorry, please ignore the "can't find factanal" part of my previous
message, you're talking about the factanal man page in stats (as Michael
Dewey pointed out to me).
But the advice still stands: you may need to rebuild from source to get
all the help working. If you're working with a binary build, try again
with a newer one when it is available. r49420 isn't very old, but it
might be old enough so that something like this has been fixed.
