working near the poles: new version 0.7 of "match"

[Stupendous Man <richmond@a188-l009.rit.edu>]

  I have played with the "match" package (which tries to perform
astrometry on a list of stars detected in an image), testing it
on images taken at the North and South Celestial Poles.  There
was indeed a bug in its coordinate transformations, which improperly
yielded Dec values of -89.9 near the _North_ Celestial Pole.

  I've fixed the code so that it gives values between +89 and +90
for images near the NCP, and values between -90 and -89 for images
near the SCP.  The error wasn't in the "match" program itself,
but in the "apply_match" program.  

  The fixed "apply_match" program appears in version 0.7 of the
"match" package, which you can find at

  Tom, whenever you get the time, please try replacing your current
version of "match" with the new one, and then running on data
taken near the NCP.
