Ravi Varadhan and I have been looking at UCMINF to try to identify why it gives occasional (but not reproducible) errors, seemingly on Windows only. There is some suspicion that its use of DBLEPR for finessing the Fortran WRITE() statements may be to blame. While I can find DBLEPR in Venables and Ripley, it doesn't get much mention after about 2000 in the archives, though it is in the R FAQ and Brian R. mentions they are in libR in a 2009 post. Are the xxxPR routines now deprecated (particularly for 64 bit systems) or still OK to use? If OK, can anyone point to documentation and examples?
