[Rd] prompt () and backticks for default arguments

Dear all,
I just noticed, that prompt () looses backticks that protect default arguments:
f <- function (FUN = `*`) {}
cat (prompt (f, NA)$usage)
yields:
\usage{ f(FUN = *) } %- maybe also 'usage' for other objects documented here.
without the backticks, which is of course found by R CMD check as syntax error.
While this is easily fixed if the .Rd is further edited manually, I stumbled
over it using the automated .Rd generation with inlinedocs - in this combination
it is very inconvenient.
Any suggestions?
All the best,
Claudia
