[Rd] Bug in Rdconv(.pm) (PR#13575)

[ligges at statistik.tu-dortmund.de]

For the record (and as privately discussed with Brian Ripley), happens 
with all recent versions of R including R-devel from today:


Consider a simple a.Rd file containing the lines

==================
\name{a}
\title{a}
\value{\code{a} \code{\link[a]{a}} \pkg{a}
    \item{a}{a}
}
==================


with these lines, I get, e.g.:



==================
R CMD Rdconv --type="txt" a.Rd

a                  package:unknown                  R Documentation

a

Value:

     'a' 'a' 'a'
Can't find Unicode property definition "k" at 
d:/Rcompile/recent/R/share/perl/R/Rdconv.pm line 2173,
<$rdfile> line 5.
