	 * Design: if an %ia% object has iaspecial TRUE modifies how mmcolnames is created for that model term to account for an inconsistency in R whereby a categorical variable involved in %ia% when there are only two levels does not generate the usual variable=non-reference value in the column names.

This gets around the problem with [.terms messing up offset terms when you subset on non-offset terms

   * Corrected bug in calibrate.psm (fixed -> parms)
   * predab.resample, calibrate.cph, calibrate.default, calibrate.psm: stopped putting results from overall initial fit into .Global and instead had predab.resample put them in attribute keepinfo, obtained from measure()
