* This returns an the length of an element of the string array 
* which was passed as an argument to the function.  
*
* Called by ef_get_string_arg_element_len.
*
* Inside this subroutine arg is an array of pointers (cast as real*8),
* and we can call GET_STRING_ELEMENT to get the length of a string element.
