[Rd] Problem with proj

[Prof Brian Ripley]

I think the qr object is correct.  The problem is in proj.aovlist, and I 
have now fixed it.

Answering something like this is as much work as dealing with a bug 
report, since we need to dig in (to find that is the aovlist method, for 
example) and to recall how it works (it is about 7 years since I wrote 
it).
