+ Form the equatorial to ecliptic rotation matrix - IAU 1980 theory
+ (double precision)
+
+ Given:
+ DATE dp TDB (loosely ET) as Modified Julian Date
+ (JD-2400000.5)
+ Returned:
+ RMAT dp(3,3) matrix
+
+ Reference:
+ Murray,C.A., Vectorial Astrometry, section 4.3.
+
+ Note:
+ The matrix is in the sense V(ecl) = RMAT * V(equ); the
+ equator, equinox and ecliptic are mean of date.
