The following was the fix:

  if (N%2.ne.0) then   ; odd #  subintervals
      N   = N-1                                          ; <=== added
      ans = ans + y(N)*(2*dx(N-1)^2 + 3*dx(N-2)*dx(N-1)) \
                      /(6*(dx(N-2)+dx(N-1) ) )
      ans = ans + y(N-1)*(dx(N-1)^2 + 3*dx(N-1)*dx(N-2)) \
                       /(6*dx(N-2) )
      ans = ans - y(N-2)*dx(N-1)^3                       \  ; note - sign
                       /(6*dx(N-2)*(dx(N-2)+dx(N-1)) )
  end if
