+This library is built from the GPL Fortran version of SLA in the Starlink
+repository 
+
+http://starlink.jach.hawaii.edu/git/?p=starlink.git;a=tree;f=libraries/sla
+
+It can be called from Fortran as well as from C.
+
+This library source contained an obfusticated C version of slaDeuler() in
+sla.c. It was used there in preference to a wrapper around the Fortran
+SLA_DEULER routine in order to ensure it is thread safe.
+
+This obfuscated C code is reverted to the Fortran wrapper. Thread safety of
+the library is ensured by the "-frecursive" compiler flag.
+
+Note that there is a library "PAL" in development in the Starlink project
+which will be compatible except that the functions have the prefix "pal"
+instead of "sla".
