+ Spherical coordinates to direction cosines (single precision)
+
+ Given:
+ A,B real spherical coordinates in radians
+ (RA,Dec), (Long,Lat) etc
+
+ Returned:
+ V real(3) x,y,z unit vector
+
+ The spherical coordinates are longitude (+ve anticlockwise
+ looking from the +ve latitude pole) and latitude. The
+ Cartesian coordinates are right handed, with the x axis
+ at zero longitude and latitude, and the z axis at the
+ +ve latitude pole.
