  ;; Some issues exist in the LAPACK vs. LINPACK variants, hence R
  ;; uses LINPACK primarily, rather than LAPACK.  See comments in R
  ;; source for issues.  


  ;; Goal is to start from X, Y and then realize that if
  ;; Y = X \beta, then,   i.e. 8x1 = 8xp px1  + 8x1
  ;;      XtX \hat\beta = Xt Y
  ;; so that we can solve the equation  W \beta = Z   where W and Z
  ;; are known, to estimate \beta.

  ;; the above is known to be numerically instable -- some processing
  ;; of X is preferred and should be done prior.  And most of the
  ;; transformation-based work does precisely that.

  ;; recall:  Var[Y] = E[(Y - E[Y])(Y-E[Y])t]
  ;;   = E[Y Yt] - 2 \mu \mut + \mu \mut
  ;;   = E[Y Yt] - \mu \mut

  ;; Var Y = E[Y^2] - \mu^2


  ;; For initial estimates of covariance of \hat\beta:

  ;; \hat\beta = (Xt X)^-1 Xt Y
  ;; with E[ \hat\beta ] 
  ;;        = E[ (Xt X)^-1 Xt Y ]
  ;;        = E[(Xt X)^-1 Xt (X\beta)]
  ;;        = \beta 
  ;;        
  ;; So Var[\hat\beta] = ...
  ;;     (Xt X)
  ;; and this gives SE(\beta_i) = (* (sqrt (mref Var i i)) adjustment)
