I've updated the locfit library, with R 0.99.0 compatability and other
changes. The new version is propagating through CRAN, or available
from my webpage, http://cm.bell-labs.com/stat/project/locfit.


Also with regard to distribution accuracy, these might be of interest -
http://cm.bell-labs.com/stat/clive/dbinom.ps  (document)
http://cm.bell-labs.com/stat/clive/dbinom.c   (c source code).
It's using a saddle point method for dbinom() and dpois() which
is much more accurate than the current R (and S-Plus) implementations
for large n (no R interface yet, but that should be easy).

Regards,
Clive.
