+ Apply corrections for proper motion to a star RA,Dec
+ (double precision)
+
+ References:
+ 1984 Astronomical Almanac, pp B39-B41.
+ (also Lederle & Schwan, Astron. Astrophys. 134,
+ 1-6, 1984)
+
+ Given:
+ R0,D0 dp RA,Dec at epoch EP0 (rad)
+ PR,PD dp proper motions: RA,Dec changes per year of epoch
+ PX dp parallax (arcsec)
+ RV dp radial velocity (km/sec, +ve if receding)
+ EP0 dp start epoch in years (e.g. Julian epoch)
+ EP1 dp end epoch in years (same system as EP0)
+
+ Returned:
+ R1,D1 dp RA,Dec at epoch EP1 (rad)
+
+ Called:
+ slDS2C spherical to Cartesian
+ slDC2S Cartesian to spherical
+ slDA2P normalize angle 0-2Pi
+
+ Note:
+ The proper motions in RA are dRA/dt rather than
+ cos(Dec)*dRA/dt, and are in the same coordinate
+ system as R0,D0.
