+ Removed dsmv.cc from directory src.
Version 1.7.2 - 2004-05-10 (EO)
-------------
+ Removed some left dependencies on interpr (combi).
+ dsmv.cc removed from all Makefiles to build under Mac Os X.
dsmv.cc defines _dsmv_ which is also defined by slatec dsmv.f.
Multiple symbol definition is not allowed under mac OS X.
Checked that libdsmv is not required by any other libraries.
Version 1.7.1 - 2004-05-07 (EO)
-------------
+ Dependency on interpr removed by making available in
utils all the code that was required from interpr.
The utils version required is 1.109.2
Version 1.7 - 2003-11-11 (AI)
-----------
+ ChangeLog fixed
ersion 1.6 - 2003-11-11 (JSH&AI)
-----------
+ (testcase scripts) Set dsstruct to run as non-verbose (-V 0) to
prevent trace output from dsstruct corrupting templace used by
dsvalidate
+ USEDLIBS changed in src/Makefile and src/Make.local for
static build.
Version 1.51 - 2003-11-10 (AI)
-----------
+ Removed previous changes.
Version 1.5 - 2003-11-10 (AI)

static build.
Version 1.4 - 2002-11-11 (GV)
-----------

my_fits_read_keyword to wrap around the cfitsio equivalent and

string keyword. This fixes SOC-SPR-2364.
Version 1.3 - 2002-11-04 (GV)
