*
*  Purpose
*  =======
*
*  SLACON estimates the 1-norm of a square, real matrix A.
*  Reverse communication is used for evaluating matrix-vector products.
*
*  Arguments
*  =========
*
*  N      (input) INTEGER
*         The order of the matrix.  N >= 1.
*
*  V      (workspace) REAL array, dimension (N)
*         On the final return, V = A*W,  where  EST = norm(V)/norm(W)
*         (W is not returned).
*
*  X      (input/output) REAL array, dimension (N)
*         On an intermediate return, X should be overwritten by
*               A * X,   if KASE=1,
*               A' * X,  if KASE=2,
*         and SLACON must be re-called with all the other parameters
*         unchanged.
*
*  ISGN   (workspace) INTEGER array, dimension (N)
*
*  EST    (output) REAL
*         An estimate (a lower bound) for norm(A).
*
*  KASE   (input/output) INTEGER
*         On the initial call to SLACON, KASE should be 0.
*         On an intermediate return, KASE will be 1 or 2, indicating
*         whether X should be overwritten by A * X  or A' * X.
*         On the final return from SLACON, KASE will again be 0.
