Some work on the package while I was on sabbatical was funded by
Fondation Leducq through a grant to the LINAT collaboration and by the
Marsden Fund through a grant to the University of Auckland.

Patrick Aboyoun did the S-PLUS port of version 3.6-8

parts of the code for svycoxph() are modified from Therneau's survival package.
