This is a fix for #3891, simply by reverting sph.c to an earlier version. I think these changes were part of an attempt at optimization and not fixing any bug anyway.

We should wait and see what the official fix in wcslib will be (I've reported this to Mark Calabretta), but in the meantime, this provides us with an alternative.

@olebole: This is a critical enough bug that you may want to apply it to the Debian package of wcslib 5.x if there is one already.

Thank you very much! I am currently however holding back wcslib-5.x (it is in experimental only) since I have no real pressure to upload, and I want to wait until it works with astropy.

Yikes, that's a bummer. At least you tracked it down quickly.

Just to confirm, astrofrog/wcsaxes#168 passes again with these changes.

@mdboom - when you said

do you mean that we shouldn't merge this PR yet?

There's a new release of wcslib today -- I will test it and either merge that one, or if that fails, merge this one.
