Yes, rsync is indeed more than adequate for my purposes,
somehow I managed to miss the mention of rsync on the
website.

The src/modules/lapack/double.f in r-devel appears to be
identical to that in R-1.3.1, i.e. no DGESDD.  So the answer
to my main question is "no".   What about my secondary
questions - whether it might be done later, or if I should
somehow contribute what I've done and/or continue to work on
it?

Thanks, Keith
