It should include Rd.sty automatically. The problem is that the file
RHOME/doc/manual/Rd.sty
is missing from the binary distribution. If you put it there this should
work without any files in the bin directory.
Apologies: of course I have never checked the final distribution, and this
works on a source build. I wondered if anyone would ever use this,
so am actually pleased to find a bug report!
BTW, using PDF format for help files is one of the ideas under debate.
Another is to provide Windows-style help files.
