I think there is a problem with JMFIT (31 DEC07 Sep 3; sorry if this has
already been fixed).
JMFIT returns the wrong value for the fit zero level (CTYPE 2) - its too high
It gets a different value than IMFIT and also (for a CTYPE 2, NGAUS 1
fit) MSTAT does (the least-squares zero-level should be the same as
the mean). I think JMFIT's zero level is actually the (zero level +
rms) which is a bit odd.
The zero-levels returned by IMFIT seems more reasonable and agrees with
the mean levels found by IMSTAT.
