[SciPy-user] modified Cholesky factorization

Hi all,
I need a way of obtaining modified Cholesky factorization:
G + E = L D L^T
in the algorithm that I'm trying to implement there is a reference to 
other algorithm, that obtains L and D according to Gill-Murray method. 
However, I think using simple Cholesky factorization would be enough (if 
scipy hasn't Gill-Murray method implemented).
Could anyone inform me what's the bast way to obtain the matrices L and 
D in scipy?
Regards, D.
