I have noticed that many cross references in the help files using the \code{\link{foo}} command in the .Rd file fail to work in 2.10.0. Unfortunately, it fails only some of the time.

As an example, consider the lines in the factanal help file:
Using 2.10.0

Sorry, please ignore the "can't find factanal" part of my previous message, you're talking about the factanal man page in stats (as Michael Dewey pointed out to me).

But the advice still stands: you may need to rebuild from source to get all the help working. If you're working with a binary build, try again with a newer one when it is available. r49420 isn't very old, but it might be old enough so that something like this has been fixed.
