Thank you. I was confused because survival was a standard (recommended) package, so I thought r-bugs was the appropriate place. I have contacted the maintainer of the package with this information. My thanks also to Peter Dalgaard for de-base64-coding my message; I have no idea how or why it got encoded that way. Additionally, this was meant as a follow-up to PR#13171. Both PR#13171 and PR#13180 can be considered dealt with. Please accept my apologies for messing the process up so much.

So it is not useful to report on it on R-bugs (see the FAQ and the posting guide).
