I'm as good as any. You can view the bug repository at
<http://bugs.r-project.org/>. There's an entry there that says Thomas
Lumley has fixed things. I tried a couple of variations on your bug
example and they seemed to work fine.

I think that was added; there's this NEWS file entry:
o termplot() has an option to smooth the partial residuals.
You can view the up-to-the minute source at
http://franz.stat.wisc.edu/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/R/
You need to look in src/library/stats (the new stats package) to find
the termplot source and documentation; it can be annotated to show
what was added on each date.
By default you're seeing the source to r-devel (the upcoming 1.9.0);
you can choose a different branch (e.g. the r 1.8 patches branch) to
see different variations. I don't think the bug fix for termplot has
been added to the patch branch. Since the packages were reorganized,
it's a lot harder to add things to both branches, so most things are
only going into r-devel (and new features are never supposed to go
into the patch version, only bug fixes).
