[R] vectorizing ANOVA over a vectorized linear model

[hadley wickham]

Hi Mark,

If efficiency is a concern you might want to read "Computing Thousands
of Test Statistics Simultaneously in R" by Holger Schwender and Tina
Müller, http://stat-computing.org/newsletter/issues/scgn-18-1.pdf.

If you just want to do it, see the examples in
http://had.co.nz/plyr/plyr-intro-090510.pdf.
