R devel - Jul 1999 - deviance.lm() should calculate a weighted SS of residuals (PR#233)

Here is a (slightly silly) example.  Surely deviance.lm()
should calculate a weighted sum of squares about the mean,
not a sum of squares.  deviance.glm() is correct.

   weight depression
1     1.9          2
2     3.1          1
3     3.3          5
4     4.8          5
5     5.3         20
6     6.1         20
7     6.4         23
8     7.6         10
9     9.8         30
10   12.4         25
