    that Psi'(0) = 1

2006-04-22  Martin Maechler  <maechler@stat.math.ethz.ch>

    * R/lmrob.MM.R (lmrob.S): new (control) option 'best.r.s = 2';
        was hardcoded in C
    * src/lmrob.c (R_lmrob_S): 'best_r' is now argument; further,
        seed_rand is passed to the fast_s*() sub functions, so we
        can call them from R {and decide ourselves "if fast".

    * src/rf-common.f: new file for functions identical
    in rffastcmd.f and rfltsreg.f.

2006-04-21  Martin Maechler  <maechler@stat.math.ethz.ch>

    * R/lmrob.MM.R (lmrob.control): change default for 'compute.rd'
    to FALSE ==> robust (Mahalanobis) distances are *not* computed by
    default.  This prevents singularity errors which happen frequently
    as soon as X contains (large) factors (with few levels).
