*> \par Purpose:
* =============
*>
*> \verbatim
*>
*> DLABAD takes as input the values computed by DLAMCH for underflow and
*> overflow, and returns the square root of each of these values if the
*> log of LARGE is sufficiently large. This subroutine is intended to
*> identify machines with a large exponent range, such as the Crays, and
*> redefine the underflow and overflow limits to be the square roots of
*> the values computed by DLAMCH. This subroutine is needed because
*> DLAMCH does not compensate for poor arithmetic in the upper half of
*> the exponent range, as is found on a Cray.
*> \endverbatim
*
* Arguments:
* ==========
*
*> \param[in,out] SMALL
*> \verbatim
*> SMALL is DOUBLE PRECISION
*> On entry, the underflow threshold as computed by DLAMCH.
*> On exit, if LOG10(LARGE) is sufficiently large, the square
*> root of SMALL, otherwise unchanged.
*> \endverbatim
*>
*> \param[in,out] LARGE
*> \verbatim
*> LARGE is DOUBLE PRECISION
*> On entry, the overflow threshold as computed by DLAMCH.
*> On exit, if LOG10(LARGE) is sufficiently large, the square
*> root of LARGE, otherwise unchanged.
