Yes.. you're wrong..
instead of the "plug and pray" algorithm why don't you have a look at  
the regtest files?
this will make you save a considerable amount of time..

Yes! it is implemented and we are still fully validating it..
Of course CG are not the best strategy.. LBFGS would perform much  
better..
but at the moment that's it.

p.s.: let me stress one important thing.. a section may even be  
present but there's no
guarantee that the method works or is bug free..
