+<DD>The result is always either equal to or very close to
+the given epoch E. The routine is required only in
+applications where punctilious treatment of heterogeneous
+ mixtures of star positions is necessary.
+ <DT>2.
+<DD>K0 and K are not validated. They are interpreted as follows:
+ <UL>
+<LI> If K0 and K are the same, the result is E.
+<LI> If K0 is `B' and K isn't, the conversion is J to B.
+<LI> In all other cases, the conversion is B to J.
