[Rd] CHM help does not find help docs in package stats

[Uwe Ligges]

Which version of R is this?
CHM help is R < 2.10.0. All versions thereafter do not support compiled 
html help anymore.

Please upgrade your version of R and try one of the currently supported 
help formats.

Best wishes,
Uwe Ligges
