TParticlePDG::Lifetime() etc.

Dear ROOT-team,

some time ago I reported that various TParticlePDG methods such as Lifetime() and Stable() don't work.

root [0] gSystem->Load("libEG");
root [1] gSystem->Load("libEGPythia6");
root [2]
root [2] TDatabasePDG * db = TDatabasePDG::Instance();
root [3] db->ReadPDGTable("/usr/local/src/root/etc/pdg_table.txt");
root [4]
root [4] TParticlePDG * p = db.GetParticle(111);
root [5] cout << p->GetName() << endl;

pi0
root [6] cout << p->Lifetime() << endl;
0
root [7] cout << p->Stable() << endl;
1

Please, could you get that fixed in 5.14/00 ?

best regards,

           Costas
