R help - May 2002 - possible changed organization of help files in 1.5.0?

I recently updated my search site at
http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu
It took about 7 hours with htDig, instead of the usual 3 hours.
Now, when I search the "functions" index I get all sorts of
non-html documents (indicated with brackets).  These have never
shown up before.  Did htDig mogrify itself while it sat on my
computer?  (I didn't do anything to change it.)  Or, more likely,
I thought, did the organization of the help files change?  I have
looked to see if I can find any changes (still have not updated
my laptop - so I compared to that), and I cannot.  Does anyone
know of any changes that would cause this?

I suspect the following item from NEWS:

    o   If a directory 'inst/doc' is present in the sources of a
        package, the HTML index of the installed package has a link to
        the respective subdirectory.

(which was put in UTILITIES not DOCUMENTATION for some reason). There are
packages with PDF (and other) documentation installed in doc.
