Purpose
   Let T be the tridiagonal matrix with diagonal entries A(1) ,...,
A(N) and offdiagonal entries B(1) ,..., B(N-1)). SSTECH checks to
see if EIG(1) ,..., EIG(N) are indeed accurate eigenvalues of T.
It does this by expanding each EIG(I) into an interval
[SVD(I) - EPS, SVD(I) + EPS], merging overlapping intervals if
any, and using Sturm sequences to count and verify whether each
resulting interval has the correct number of eigenvalues (using
SSTECT). Here EPS = TOL*MACHEPS*MAXEIG, where MACHEPS is the
machine precision and MAXEIG is the absolute value of the largest
eigenvalue. If each interval contains the correct number of
eigenvalues, INFO = 0 is returned, otherwise INFO is the index of
the first eigenvalue in the first bad interval.
