I don't think roxygen2 intentionally converts \u sequences, I think
this is just a consequence of the parse() + deparse() roundtrip:
x <- '"\\u03bc"'
charToRaw(x)
#> [1] 22 5c 75 30 33 62 63 22
y <- deparse(eval(parse(text = x)))
charToRaw(y)
#> [1] 22 b5 22
Bill, please report a roxygen2 issue at
https://github.com/r-lib/roxygen2/issues and we can probably fix this.
Thanks!
Gabor
