It's kind of pricey, but this is something that Mira from Axiom
Research does very well. (I often pull images over to the PC from
the middle of an IRAF reduction for this step because it's
much more convenient).

And as I understand it, Registax doesn't exactly use a single point
but the cross-correlation between regions in two images - so if
you can hand it a big enough registration box to encompass both
points of reference, that should work.
