broken vector.mac

vect.mac is enough! But I had a look at vector.mac and, especially, vector.usg
and got the impression that the definitions in vector.mac are much "cleaner".
Morrover, I wonder why this broken package isn't just deleted from share ...
In vect, SF and SFPROD is annoying ;-)

4) would be fine to have it in Maxima :-)
