Ok. I'll update the cross references accordingly to include LEGACY.
I wonder whether CHITEST should be called LEGACY.CHITEST then, because
internally, at least in the OOo implementation, it uses LEGACY.CHIDIST
called with the Chi-square value computed and the (strange, one more
reason to call it legacy) degrees of freedom.
