 * 3. subtract this value from the armc of t = aux. armc.

     * The following code was written by Bogdan Krusinski in 2006.
     * bogdan@astrologia.pl
     *
     * Definition:
     * "Krusinski - house system based on the great circle passing through 
     * ascendant and zenith. This circle is divided into 12 equal parts 
     * (1st cusp is ascendent, 10th cusp is zenith), then the resulting 
     * points are projected onto the ecliptic through meridian circles.
     * The house cusps in space are half-circles perpendicular to the equator
     * and running from the north to the south celestial pole through the
     * resulting cusp points on the house circle. The points where they 
     * cross the ecliptic mark the ecliptic house cusps."
     *
     * Description of the algorithm:
     * Transform into great circle running through Asc and zenit (where arc 
     * between Asc and zenith is always 90 deg), and then return with 
     * house cusps into ecliptic. Eg. solve trigonometrical triangle 
     * with three transformations and two rotations starting from ecliptic. 
     * House cusps in space are meridian circles. 
     *
     * Notes:
     * 1. In this definition we assume MC on ecliptic as point where
     *    half-meridian (from north to south pole) cuts ecliptic,
     *    so MC may be below horizon in arctic regions.
     * 2. Houses could be calculated in all latitudes except the poles 
     *    themselves (-90,90) and points on arctic circle in cases where 
     *    ecliptic is equal to horizon and then ascendant is undefined. 
     *    But ascendant when 'horizon=ecliptic' could be deduced as limes 
     *    from both sides of that point and houses with that provision can 
     *    be computed also there.
     *
     * Starting values for calculations:
     *	   - Asc ecliptic longitude
     *	   - right ascension of MC (RAMC)
     *	   - geographic latitude.
