It is much easier to convert such packages to use dyn.load (and both
dyn.load and dll.load need version 3.2, I believe). In this case I
have done so. The appropriate file is
markov.stats.ox.ac.uk:/pub/SWin/haerdle.zip
Also in that directory is a converted version of the multinom library,
as well as files for the Venables & Ripley libraries (including dynamic
loading).
My ability to test things under Windows is severely limited by a lack of
time and tools (I do not possess a PC) so only superficial testing has
been done of the multinom and haerdle libraries. As and when time
permits, more libraries will be added to this collection.
