Hi, 

In an attempt to clear the confusing monitor S/R where 
the _rl and _rs version of mon_printstats_rl/s (and similarly mon_stats_rl/s)
used to be were very different, with many more arguments for the _RL version,
I made the following changes:
Dec 21: (before checkpoint62)
> replace all calls to mon_printstats_rl & mon_stats_rl 
> with new version: mon_writestats_rl & mon_calc_stats_rl
And recently:
Jan 16: (after checkpoint62a)
> change mon_printstats_rl.F & mon_stats_rl.F (were similar to mon_writestats_rl
> & mon_calc_stats_rl) to be the RL pendant to mon_printstats_rs & mon_stats_rs.

The little problem here is that if someone has some pieces of code
(older than Dec 21) that contains some calls to mon_printstats_rl
(or, but less likely, mon_stats_rl), and update after Jan 16, it's not 
going to work well with different list of arguments.

Since the new version of mon_printstats_rl (= like mon_printstats_rs but for RL var)
is not called anywhere, I can still go back (undo the Jan 16 modif)
and just add a stop in the old version.
And later, when/if we need a RL version of mon_printstats_rs, we can 
re-do this Jan 16 modif.

What do you think ? 
Should I just leave it as it is or undo this Jan 16 modif ?

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
