Yes, this is the tex that gets output:
\code{mlazy( <{}<objname1>{}>, <<objname2>>, <<etc>>)}
This seems to happen in Rdconv.pm, around here:
## avoid conversion to guillemots
$c =~ s/<</<\{\}</;
$c =~ s/>>/>\{\}>/;
But I don't know enough Perl syntax to tell it to replace all << by
<{}<, instead of just the first. (I would have guessed appending a g
would work, but didn't in a quick test, i.e. $c =~ s/<</<\{\}</g; didn't
work.)
