It's *been installed* in the "standard library" on the machine that
serves those pages, along with just about everything in sight... It is
another one of Jim Lindsey's packages, so you need to get it from his
website.

(The maintainers of the site might want to take note of this possible
misunderstanding. I believe that splitting the R library into several
directories and setting R_LIBS would make the listing more readable.)
