I don't think this is a bug in R. I believe a (not too) recent change in Gentoo removed /usr/bin/pwd so that the only one left is /bin/pwd. R seems to remember from install time where to find these utilities, and probably found /usr/bin/pwd when you installed the not recent version of R. You found one workaround, and another would be a fresh install of R.
