_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     This function is generic; method functions can be written to
     handle specific classes of objects. Classes which already have
     methods for this function include: 'corStruct', 'modelStruct',
     'reStruct', and 'varFunc'.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     recalc(object, conLin, ...)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

  object: any object which induces a recalculation of the condensed
          linear model object 'conLin'.

  conLin: a condensed linear model object, consisting of a list with
          components '"Xy"', corresponding to a regression matrix ('X')
          combined with a response vector ('y'), and '"logLik"',
          corresponding to the log-likelihood of the underlying model.

     ...: some methods for this generic can take additional arguments.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     the recalculated condensed linear model object.

_N_o_t_e:

     This function is only used inside model fitting functions, such as
     'lme' and 'gls', that require recalculation of a condensed linear
     model object.
