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.

Note that survival is a contributed package: only the maintainer can alter 
it (or at least, if someone else does the change will get lost -- it has 
happened before).  So it is not useful to report on it on R-bugs (see the 
FAQ and the posting guide).
