R devel - May 2020 - "cd" floating in the air in the man page for paste/paste0

Hi,

While reading about the new 'recycle0' argument of paste/paste0, I 
spotted a mysterious "cd" floating in the air in the man page:

   recycle0: ?logical? indicating if zero-length character arguments (and
             all zero-length or no arguments when ?collapse? is not
             ?NULL?) should lead to the zero-length ?character(0)?.
        cd
        ^^

This is in R 4.0.0 Patched and R devel.

Cheers,
H.

Also still in r-devel as of svn r78432:

  \item{recycle0}{\code{\link{logical}} indicating if zero-length
    character arguments (and all zero-length or no arguments when
    \code{collapse} is not \code{NULL}) should lead to the zero-length
    \code{\link{character}(0)}.}cd 
                                ^^
