That indicates that jacobi() is finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors. 
In which case, doesn't eigen() do that?

Changing jacobi() to call eigen() instead is trivial:

	int 
	jacobi (double a[MX][MX], long n, double d[MX], double v[MX][MX])
	{
	  double *aa[MX], *vv[MX], *dd;
	  int i;
	  for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
	    aa[i] = &a[i+1][1];
	    vv[i] = &v[i+1][1];
	  }
	  dd = &d[1];
	  eigen(aa, vv, dd, n);
	}

However, I don't enough about i.cca (or the imagery programs
generally) to be able to test it.
