I always do it your way,
	(install into a different path, and use the RLIBS environment variable)
but I have never had your problem.

(but I have to admit that I rarely use the 'functions.html' interface;
 if I use the HTML interface its for demo-ing to others,
 and/or for looking at extra packages and for using the Java search
 interface;  for everything else, ESS (Emacs Speaks Statistics) 
 is more convenient for me
)
