Subject: [Rd] standardized residuals (rstandard & plot.lm) (PR#8367)
Message-ID: <20051206161033.520AD2843F@slim.kubism.ku.dk>

Curiously, I was just looking at that, since I believe the answer should 
be NaN, and some optimizing compilers/fast BLASes are not giving that.
(There's an example in reg-test-3.R.)  So I think we need to return NaN 
when hat is within rounding error of 1.

My take is that plot.lm should handle this: you will see most but not all 
cases have na.rm=TRUE in calculating ylim, but as Inf is theoretically
impossible it has not been considered.

Note that plot.lm does not use rstandard and so needs a separate fix.

Thanks for the report
