That is not quite what S-PLUS 5.1 and 2000 have: replace
(*) by

-log(mu) - (y - mu)/mu 

That is, the formula is

-log(mu) - (y - mu)/mu + log(y)I(y > 0)

Note that earlier versions of S-PLUS (e.g. 3.4) are plain wrong (and as
I found the bug I know what the replacment is).

Unless there are any objections I will put these fixes in.
