[R] obtaining exact p-values in mixed effects model

Hello,
Using a fixed effects linear model (with lm), I can get exact p-values
out of the AVOVA table, even if they are very small, eg. 1.0e-200.
Using lme (linear mixed effects) from the nlme library,
it appears that there is rounding of the p-values to zero, if
the p-value is less than about 1.0e-16. Is there a way we can obtain
the exact p-values from lme without rounding?
used commands:
library(nlme)
g<-lme(value~factor(fac1)+factor(fac2)+factor(fac1):factor(fac2),data=mydataframe,random=~1|factor(fac3))
ag<-anova(g)
kind regards, R. Alberts
