I am testing out the next release of survival, which involves running R CMD check on 868 CRAN packages that import, depend or suggest it. The survival package has a lot of data sets, most of which are non-trivial real examples (something I'm proud of).  To save space I've bundled many of

Duncan and others:  I was not being careful with my description.  This concerned tests of version 3.2-8, not yet on CRAN, in which I was trying some size-limiting measures.   My apologies for not making this clear.   - I feel mild pressure to make the survival package smaller, per CRAN

I found an issue with the data() command this evening when working on the survival package. 1. I have a lot of data sets in the package, almost all used in at least one vignette, help file, or test.  As a space saving measure, I have bundled many of them together, i.e., the file
