[Rd] link in base help file fails.

[Keith Satterley]

I run R on MS Windows. In R2.9.0dev, I type ?base to get "R help for package 
base" to open. I then select ".First" from the list of contents, getting a page 
headed: "Initialization at Start of an R Session". About half way down there is 
a sentence:

The command-line flag --vanilla implies --no-site-file, --no-init-file, 
--no-restore and --no-environ. Under Windows, it also implies --no-Rconsole, 
which prevents loading the ‘Rconsole’ file.

The last occurrence of the word Rconsole is in blue text and underlined, a link. 
On clicking on this link, I get a page headed "This program cannot display the 
webpage" with advice on "Most likely causes:" and "What you can try".

Other links work satisfactorily on that page. My internet connection is working.

I presume there is a problem with this Rconsole link.
