VRotation is used in Rune S. Johansen's Spline_Trans from
transforms.inc. I see that as the immediately significant one.

Searching through my archives turned up a couple more.
- Tim Atwood put out a spline_tools.inc - which looks quite similar to
Rune's code.
- Michael Andrews published a convhull.in which uses it.
All make use of VProject_Plane for the arguments. As to whether the
VRotation use was strictly needed...
I didn't turn up any use of VRotationD.
