There is no freely available S code for CART.
The best bet is either to use Therneau's C routines (available as rpart
in the statlib general section) or one of the survival tree regression
packages for S (or both) and extend them. It's not going to be trivial.
On the other hand you would probably end up with a better implementation
that S-PLUS has.
