Two people have (correctly) pointed out that the BSpl solution I
posted is not a solution to the problem as stated.  The curve
generated by BSpl is guaranteed to contain only the first and last
data points and generally does not contain the intermediate data
points, but passes near them.  I do not have a solution for the
problem as stated.

The behavior matches that of idraw's "splines".  Try creating a spline
in idraw and you will see that only the first and last data points
actually lie on the curve.

Sorry for the confusion.
