**
**  Transform geodetic coordinates to geocentric for a reference
**  ellipsoid of specified form.
**
**  Given:
**     a       double     equatorial radius (Notes 1,4)
**     f       double     flattening (Notes 2,4)
**     elong   double     longitude (radians, east +ve)
**     phi     double     latitude (geodetic, radians, Note 4)
**     height  double     height above ellipsoid (geodetic, Notes 3,4)
**
**  Returned:
**     xyz     double[3]  geocentric vector (Note 3)
**
**  Returned (function value):
**             int        status:  0 = OK
**                                -1 = illegal case (Note 4)
**  Notes:
**
**  1) The equatorial radius, a, can be in any units, but meters is
**     the conventional choice.
**
**  2) The flattening, f, is (for the Earth) a value around 0.00335,
**     i.e. around 1/298.
**
**  3) The equatorial radius, a, and the height, height, must be
**     given in the same units, and determine the units of the
**     returned geocentric vector, xyz.
**
**  4) No validation is performed on individual arguments.  The error
**     status -1 protects against (unrealistic) cases that would lead
**     to arithmetic exceptions.  If an error occurs, xyz is unchanged.
**
**  5) The inverse transformation is performed in the function
**     eraGc2gde.
**
**  6) The transformation for a standard ellipsoid (such as ERFA_WGS84) can
**     more conveniently be performed by calling eraGd2gc,  which uses a
**     numerical code to identify the required a and f values.
