13** Given:
14** v1 float[3] direction cosines of one point
15** v2 float[3] direction cosines of the other point
16**
17** (The coordinate frames correspond to RA,Dec, Long,Lat etc.)
18**
19** The result is the bearing (position angle), in radians, of point
20** v2 with respect to point v1. It is in the range +/- pi. The
21** sense is such that if v2 is a small distance east of v1, the
22** bearing is about +pi/2. Zero is returned if the two points
23** are coincident.
24**
25** The vectors v1 and v2 need not be unit vectors.
26**
27** The routine slaBear performs an equivalent function except
28** that the points are specified in the form of spherical
29** coordinates.
