DOUBLE PRECISION FUNCTION sla_GMST (UT1)
*+
*     - - - - -
*      G M S T
*     - - - - -
*
*  Conversion from universal time to sidereal time (double precision)
*
*  Given:
*    UT1    dp     universal time (strictly UT1) expressed as
*                  modified Julian Date (JD-2400000.5)
*
*  The result is the Greenwich mean sidereal time (double
*  precision, radians).
*
*  The IAU 1982 expression (see page S15 of 1984 Astronomical
*  Almanac) is used, but rearranged to reduce rounding errors.
*  This expression is always described as giving the GMST at
*  0 hours UT.  In fact, it gives the difference between the
*  GMST and the UT, which happens to equal the GMST (modulo
*  24 hours) at 0 hours UT each day.  In this routine, the
*  entire UT is used directly as the argument for the
*  standard formula, and the fractional part of the UT is
*  added separately;  note that the factor 1.0027379... does
*  not appear.
*
*  See also the routine sla_GMSTA, which delivers better numerical
*  precision by accepting the UT date and time as separate arguments.
*
*  Called:  sla_DRANRM
