Review Appendix D in the R Installation and Administration Manual.

The current Iced Tea engine does not support the Java-JavaScript bridge,
which precludes the help.start() engine from functioning. You would need to use the Sun Java VM, which I believe for 64 bit systems still means using the 32-bit version.

In the mean time, you can follow the current Bugzilla report on the Iced Tea issue:
