*  Name:
*     palPrebn

*  Purpose:
*     Generate the matrix of precession between two objects (old)

*  Language:
*     Starlink ANSI C

*  Type of Module:
*     Library routine

*  Invocation:
*     void palPrebn ( double bep0, double bep1, double rmatp[3][3] );

*  Arguments:
*     bep0 = double (Given)
*        Beginning Besselian epoch.
*     bep1 = double (Given)
*        Ending Besselian epoch
*     rmatp = double[3][3] (Returned)
*        precession matrix in the sense V(BEP1) = RMATP * V(BEP0)

*  Description:
*     Generate the matrix of precession between two epochs,
*     using the old, pre-IAU1976, Bessel-Newcomb model, using
*     Kinoshita's formulation

*  Authors:
*     PTW: Pat Wallace (STFC)
