[daip] installing local tasks in AIPS

[Rick White]

Hi Eric,
Thanks for compiling HAPPY!  I copied it from your ftp site and did a quick sanity check, and at least the task does start successfully.  We'll need to wait until Bob is back from his trip to be sure it is fully functional.

I used make for 15 years to build my (tiny set) of AIPS tasks, but I'm sure my approach was not optimal --- and it certainly was not flexible enough to support lots of operating systems like you do.

To fix the multiply defined subroutines, omit/delete these files:

CLRESTZ.FOR
QCLEAN.FOR
IMGRZ.FOR
preY2K-getepc.FOR
CTGB.FOR
fudgepos.FOR

With those omissions, I believe that all the duplications will be eliminated and these tasks will get built:

ANNAB
CTBOX
FIXMP
FLDNN
GETSB
IRNG2
MKBOX
MYTBT
NEWTB
PUTKY
SCTBX
SRCFN
SUBI2
UNANN
UNFXM
VTEST

Thanks!
Rick

P.S. Bob, HAPPY is installed on last in VERSION='FIRST' with FIRST = /Users/bob/aips/31DEC15/first/.  Once you're confident that it works, we should be able to install it on some of the other LLNL machines.

I'm not optimistic that this will go smoothly because it has been a few years since we've been able to compile these, and changes in the AIPS subroutine interfaces or common blocks could break them.  But I guess it is worth a try to see how it works.  The logic in these changes very rarely -- the most recent change in any of the code was more than 3 years ago.
