It won't do double cross-validation, but the caret package can be used
to tune similar models using different forms of cross-validation or
the bootstrap. Currently, the elasticnet, the lasso (via the
elasticnet) and models from the penalized package can be used. I have
a devel version with glmnet in it too. I could always add LARS to
caret. See

Of course, there is always lars:::cv.lars too.
