+  Transformation from de Vaucouleurs supergalactic coordinates
+  to IAU 1958 galactic coordinates (double precision)
+
+  Given:
+     DSL,DSB     dp       supergalactic longitude and latitude
+
+  Returned:
+     DL,DB       dp       galactic longitude and latitude L2,B2
+
+  (all arguments are radians)
+
+  Called:
+     slDS2C, slDIMV, slDC2S, slDA2P, slDA1P
