In short, no. However, I looked at this question in the limited context
of fitting the parameters of a linear superposition of 2 exponential

The thread you linked to regarding Levenberg-Marquardt's supposed lack of

package minpack.lm
(http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/minpack.lm.html) since

I need to translate Matlab's function 'lsqnonlin'
(http://www-ccs.ucsd.edu/matlab/toolbox/optim/lsqnonlin.html) into R,
and at the beginning I thought it would be the same as R's 'optim'. But
