It doesn't offer that, but it sounds like it would be an easy
modification, if you know where to do it. The reference manual is built
by commands listed in the RHOME/doc/manual/Makefile.win file on Windows,
and the Makefile on other platforms. The sort of change you want could
likely be made to the RHOME/tools/pkg2tex.pl Perl script, but do note
that the documentation production tools are being overhauled for R 2.9.0
(due in March or April), and I expect this will be an easier change
after that's done than before.
