IMSL has released a new version of their library which is split into three
parts:  MATH/LIBRARY, STAT/LIBRARY and SFUN/LIBRARY.  The subroutine DGEAR
has been replaced by a new routine IVPAG, which is part of MATH/LIBRARY.
IVPAG can use the Adams-Moulton or Gear method.  I have not actually used
this routine, so I can't tell you how it compares with DGEAR.
