Anyone using the penalised partial likelihood routines in survival5 should
update their version. 

A bug has been fixed in the S package: in coxph() models with penalised
likelihood and strata it was possible in some circumstances to get an
infinite loop or perhaps an incorrect answer. 

The new version (2.3) is on cran.r-project.org and will percolate through
CRAN in the next few days.
