Incorrect bug report (PR#6731)
What the manual actually says is
(using Rdindex() from package tools)
whereas the NEWS file says
o R CMD Rdindex has been removed.
which is not the same thing at all. Rdindex was a script and Rdindex()
is an R function.
Please do read very carefully the section in the R FAQ about reporting
BUGS.

The NEWS document indicates that Rdindex was removed in version 1.8.0 (UTILITIES section).
