Dear Ista and F.Doerwald,

F.Doerwald could also fit a model using sem() in the sem package, and then use 
deltaMethod() in the car package to get the estimated value and standard error 
of any function of model coefficients that he or she chooses.

Sorry, I didn't read the original posting.

I hope this helps,
 John
