OK, well, the way I suggested will allow you to modify the C code too --
but reading your question I realize you probably don't want to do this.
If you want to use the definitions of the C functions from stats, you can
skip 2. below and add another modification to the calls to .C in your
def. of bw.SJ; add the argument PACKAGE="stats".
