Look even harder!  arima0 does fits ARIMAX models, using the xreg
parameter.

For an example, see ch13.R in the MASS/scripts collection.

ARIMAX models are not multivariate though: that's another subject
altogether.  For more complicated multiple models, bundle dse provides
a toolkit.

I know that the documentation is sparse, but this is an area due to be
replaced before too long.
