Ramon and Michael There were 2 simple issues: first a set of fixes I made in May that hadn't been pushed out to CRAN yet; second I needed to replace 'terms' with 'delete.response(terms)' in one place so that predict didn't try to find a response that it doesn't need. You can grab the up to date code from r-forge.r-project.org (just search for survival). I committed the change this evening, it should appear in the public copy within a day.
I'll try to push it out to CRAN tomorrow, but have one small question for the maintainers first. (Do I increment the release # in the DESCRIPTION file myself, or does it happen automatically?) Hopefully the fixes will make the upcoming release. Thank you both for the clear description of the issue; it made fixing it a breeze.
