The problem is that \pkg gets included (unescaped) in a Perl
substitution, and in modern Perl \p has a meaning (Unicode property).
Needs to be escaped/quoted, or the code to work a different way (which
is probably preferable).

Consider a simple a.Rd file containing the lines
==================
\name{a}
\title{a}
\value{\code{a} \code{\link[a]{a}} \pkg{a}
\item{a}{a}

with these lines, I get, e.g.:
==================
R CMD Rdconv --type="txt" a.Rd
a package:unknown R Documentation
