Technically survfit.km() isn't a survival method, since it's called
directly by survfit() rather than by UseMethod, but it works like one.
It's an internal function that has never been documented, which is why it
wasn't exported.

If people want it, I can export it.  I hadn't heard from anyone wanting it
exported.
