%*% in examples (PR#855)

From R-exts.texi ca line 1125.

The ``comment'' and ``control'' characters @samp{%} and @samp{\}
@emph{always} need to be escaped.  Inside the verbatim-like commands
(@code{\code} and @code{\examples}), no other characters are special.

You need \%*\%, as it suggests there and is used in the base package
examples.

Hi, 

when we add 

\examples{
a <- 1:4

a %*% a
}

into a Rd-file are run R CMD check, the resulting R code is 

a <- 1:4

a

So, %*% ... is lost on the way if I'm not totally confused.
