/******************************* backrmsline ********************************
PROTO   void backrmsline(picstruct *field, int y, PIXTYPE *line)
PURPOSE Bicubic-spline interpolation of the background noise along the current
        scanline (y).
INPUT   Measurement or detection field pointer,
        Current line position. 
        Where to put the data. 
OUTPUT  -.
NOTES   Most of the code is a copy of subbackline(), for optimization reasons.
