 Thank you Terry. Right now I can use comp() from survMisc package to do the 2-parameter version of F-H weighting. I think both SAS and stata offer the 2-parameter version, so just thought it would be nice if survdiff() can have that option given it's standard package in R. 
Thanks!
John

You are correct that the survreg routine only supports 'rho' of the Fleming-Harrington G-rho tests.  This is a function of age -- I wrote the original code back when I was working with Tom (Fleming), and he was only using 1 parameter.  Later he and David expanded the test to two parameters.  This might be only the second request for the feature in the 30+ years since that date.
