[R] Manually setting coefficients in an lm.

[Greg Snow]

You can use the "offset" function as part of a formula in "lm" (and
other model fitting functions) to set a specific slope or set of
slopes.  Using this up front will give you the correct residuals,
standard errors, etc.  This is better than trying to modify a fitted
regression object.
