If the problem is propagation of variance on inputs through a known function,
you could look at uncert() in the metRology package.
That basically does first order error propagation using analytic (if available)
or numerical differentiation of the function, or (via uncertMC()) Monte Carlo
simulation to get error distributions (which I would recommend for larger
variance over first order calculations).
I wouldn't exactly call it statistics - it's based on recommendations
for measurement science and they assume a pretty simple deterministic model and
that has little or nothing to do with model fitting and inference.
