infinity in output of supercon subroutine (sctfcoil.f90) #530

supercon subroutine is producing sometimes an infinity in the output variable "tmarg" (the only abnormal value I could find was a high te)

The value is originated inside the "solve_for_tmarg" loop, which uses the Newton-Raphson method for the calculation. If it is meaningful I would suggest to explore changing it by a bracketing method.
