[Rd] R-3.0.0 reg-tests-3.R / survival

[Paul Gilbert]

"make check" seems to be picking up the setting of my  R_LIBS_SITE which 
is still set for 2.15.3 and had survival in it. At least, when I set 
that to empty then the check passes.  I'm not sure if checking worked 
like that before, I don't think so. I have not usually had base packages 
in my site-library. In any case, it seems like a bad idea for "make 
check" to use an existing setting of R_LIBS_SITE. At least, I think the 
idea is that it should be checking the just built library.
