Error in ?text (PR#256)

Just a minor point, but the adj argument in ?text is described wrongly
(0.64.1).  Perhaps the following might be added to the details.

     Values of 0, 0.5, and 1 specify left/top, middle and right/bottom,
     respectively.  The default is for centred text, ie \code{adj = c(0.5,
     0.5)}.

Cheers, Jonathan.

What is wrong?
pre-0.65 has

 \arguments{
     ....

   \item{adj}{one or two numeric values which specify the x
     (and optionally y) adjustment of the labels.}

     ....
 }

okay, I'm about to add this:

    JonR>      Values of 0, 0.5, and 1 specify left/top, middle and
    JonR> right/bottom, respectively.  The default is for centred text, ie
