QROMB is also not a terribly flexible integrator because it is very
difficult to pass in arguments or keywords to the user function. I
think Kate has already found it, but it's worth mentioning the
QUADPACK integrator, which I have translated to IDL.

The IDL QPINT1D function has many of the QUADPACK integrators inside
of it. The source code is available; there are several ways to pass
arguments to the user function; there are several means of error
control; and improper integrals or integrands with singularities are
allowed.

Hope that helps!
Craig
