-*
-*        LBETA,  LIEEE1,  LT and  LRND  are the  local values  of  BETA,
-*        IEEE1, T and RND.
-*
-*        Throughout this routine  we use the function  DLAMC3  to ensure
-*        that relevant values are  stored and not held in registers,  or
-*        are not affected by optimizers.
-*
-*        Compute  a = 2.0**m  with the  smallest positive integer m such
-*        that
-*
-*           fl( a + 1.0 ) = a.
-*
-         A = 1
-         C = 1
-*
-*+       WHILE( C.EQ.ONE )LOOP
-   10    CONTINUE
-         IF( C.EQ.ONE ) THEN
-            A = 2*A
-            C = DLAMC3( A, ONE )
-            C = DLAMC3( C, -A )
-            GO TO 10
-         END IF
-*+       END WHILE
-*
-*        Now compute  b = 2.0**m  with the smallest positive integer m
-*        such that
-*
-*           fl( a + b ) .gt. a.
-*
-         B = 1
-         C = DLAMC3( A, B )
-*
-*+       WHILE( C.EQ.A )LOOP
-   20    CONTINUE
-         IF( C.EQ.A ) THEN
-            B = 2*B
-            C = DLAMC3( A, B )
-            GO TO 20
-         END IF
-*+       END WHILE
-*
-*        Now compute the base.  a and c  are neighbouring floating point
-*        numbers  in the  interval  ( beta**t, beta**( t + 1 ) )  and so
-*        their difference is beta. Adding 0.25 to c is to ensure that it
-*        is truncated to beta and not ( beta - 1 ).
-*
-         QTR = ONE / 4
-         SAVEC = C
-         C = DLAMC3( C, -A )
-         LBETA = C + QTR
-*
-*        Now determine whether rounding or chopping occurs,  by adding a
-*        bit  less  than  beta/2  and a  bit  more  than  beta/2  to  a.
-*
-         B = LBETA
-         F = DLAMC3( B / 2, -B / 100 )
-         C = DLAMC3( F, A )
-         IF( C.EQ.A ) THEN
-            LRND = .TRUE.
-         ELSE
-            LRND = .FALSE.
-         END IF
-         F = DLAMC3( B / 2, B / 100 )
-         C = DLAMC3( F, A )
-         IF( ( LRND ) .AND. ( C.EQ.A ) )
-     $      LRND = .FALSE.
-*
-*        Try and decide whether rounding is done in the  IEEE  'round to
-*        nearest' style. B/2 is half a unit in the last place of the two
-*        numbers A and SAVEC. Furthermore, A is even, i.e. has last  bit
-*        zero, and SAVEC is odd. Thus adding B/2 to A should not  change
-*        A, but adding B/2 to SAVEC should change SAVEC.
-*
-         T1 = DLAMC3( B / 2, A )
-         T2 = DLAMC3( B / 2, SAVEC )
-         LIEEE1 = ( T1.EQ.A ) .AND. ( T2.GT.SAVEC ) .AND. LRND
-*
-*        Now find  the  mantissa, t.  It should  be the  integer part of
-*        log to the base beta of a,  however it is safer to determine  t
-*        by powering.  So we find t as the smallest positive integer for
-*        which
-*
-*           fl( beta**t + 1.0 ) = 1.0.

-*  =======
-*
-*  DLAMC5 attempts to compute RMAX, the largest machine floating-point
-*  number, without overflow.  It assumes that EMAX + abs(EMIN) sum
-*  approximately to a power of 2.  It will fail on machines where this
-*  assumption does not hold, for example, the Cyber 205 (EMIN = -28625,
-*  EMAX = 28718).  It will also fail if the value supplied for EMIN is
-*  too large (i.e. too close to zero), probably with overflow.
-*
-*  Arguments
-*  =========
-*
-*  BETA    (input) INTEGER
-*          The base of floating-point arithmetic.
-*
-*  P       (input) INTEGER
-*          The number of base BETA digits in the mantissa of a
-*          floating-point value.
-*
-*  EMIN    (input) INTEGER
-*          The minimum exponent before (gradual) underflow.
-*
-*  IEEE    (input) LOGICAL
-*          A logical flag specifying whether or not the arithmetic
-*          system is thought to comply with the IEEE standard.
-*
-*  EMAX    (output) INTEGER
-*          The largest exponent before overflow
-*
-*  RMAX    (output) DOUBLE PRECISION
-*          The largest machine floating-point number.

-*     .. Executable Statements ..
-*
-*     First compute LEXP and UEXP, two powers of 2 that bound
-*     abs(EMIN). We then assume that EMAX + abs(EMIN) will sum
-*     approximately to the bound that is closest to abs(EMIN).
-*     (EMAX is the exponent of the required number RMAX).
-*
-      LEXP = 1
-      EXBITS = 1
-   10 CONTINUE
-      TRY = LEXP*2
-      IF( TRY.LE.( -EMIN ) ) THEN
-         LEXP = TRY
-         EXBITS = EXBITS + 1

-      ELSE
-         UEXP = TRY
-         EXBITS = EXBITS + 1
-      END IF
-*
-*     Now -LEXP is less than or equal to EMIN, and -UEXP is greater
-*     than or equal to EMIN. EXBITS is the number of bits needed to
-*     store the exponent.
-*
-      IF( ( UEXP+EMIN ).GT.( -LEXP-EMIN ) ) THEN
-         EXPSUM = 2*LEXP

-*
-      EMAX = EXPSUM + EMIN - 1
-      NBITS = 1 + EXBITS + P
-*
-*     NBITS is the total number of bits needed to store a

-*
-      IF( ( MOD( NBITS, 2 ).EQ.1 ) .AND. ( BETA.EQ.2 ) ) THEN
-*
-*        Either there are an odd number of bits used to store a
-*        floating-point number, which is unlikely, or some bits are
-*        not used in the representation of numbers, which is possible,
-*        (e.g. Cray machines) or the mantissa has an implicit bit,
-*        (e.g. IEEE machines, Dec Vax machines), which is perhaps the
-*        most likely. We have to assume the last alternative.
-*        If this is true, then we need to reduce EMAX by one because
-*        there must be some way of representing zero in an implicit-bit
-*        system. On machines like Cray, we are reducing EMAX by one
-*        unnecessarily.
-*

-      IF( IEEE ) THEN

-*        Assume we are on an IEEE machine which reserves one exponent
-*        for infinity and NaN.
-*
-         EMAX = EMAX - 1
-      END IF
-*
-*     Now create RMAX, the largest machine number, which should
-*     be equal to (1.0 - BETA**(-P)) * BETA**EMAX .

-*
