using cygwin64 causes a couple of bugs during make check.
Fixes are as follows:
1. in ncdump.c and nccopy.c change all occurrences of
'return EXIT_FAILURE'
and
'return EXIT_SUCCESS'
with
exit(EXIT_FAILURE)
and
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS)
respectively.
I have no idea why this works.
2. in libdap2/ncdap3a.c#freeNCDAPCOMMON,
remove the call to nc_abort, it is
causing a loop; not sure why this
is not caught under other operating systems.
Some servers do not properly
implement the current DAP2 spec.
It turns out that this server is one of those:

When a reference such as this is made:
http://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov:9090/dods/gens/gens20140123/gep_all_12z?prmslmsl[0][0][0][0:359]
tt is returning this:
Dataset {
float prmslmsl[ens=1][time=1][lat=1][lon=360];
} gens%2fgens20140123%2fgep_all_12z;
when it should be returning this:
Dataset {
Structure {
float prmslmsl[ens=1][time=1][lat=1][lon=360];
} prmslmsl;
} gens%2fgens20140123%2fgep_all_12z;
The reason is that when picking fields out of a grid,
one must maintain the fully qualified name, so the grid
is converted to an enclosing structure.
It turns out that the problem was that
when I create the new structure node, I was
improperly linking it into the existing graph.
This caused a null pointer failure.
Fix is to make sure the relevant field (node->root)
is set.

Solution was to do a null pointer test.
Added a test (tst_misc).
Add a new function called nc_inq_format_extended that
returns more detailed format information (vis-a-vis
nc_inq_format) about an open dataset.
Note that the netcdf API will present the file as if it had
the format specified by nc_inq_format. The true file
format, however, may not even be a netcdf file; it might be
DAP, HDF4, or PNETCDF, for example. This function returns
that true file type. It also returns the effective mode for
the file.
signature: nc_inq_format_extended(int ncid, int* formatp, int* modep)
where
* ncid is the NetCDF ID from a previous call to nc_open() or
nc_create().
* formatp is a pointer to a location for returned true format.
* modep is a pointer to a location for returned mode flags.
Refer to the actual list in the file netcdf.h to see the
currently defined set.
Also added test cases (tst_formatx*).
the rest of the dimension queries. Correct error in library where types used
in sub-group variables but that were added to the file after the sub-group was
created weren't available for sub-group variables to use. Start cleaning up
test suite and un-commenting tests that were commented out (got up to
nc_test4/tst_fills2.c, alphabetically) before running into an error in HDF5.
to clean up resources properly on failure.
Refactored doubly-linked list code for objects in the libsrc4 directory,
cleaning up the add/del routines, breaking out the common next/prev
pointers into a struct and extracting the add/del operations on them,
changed the list of dims to add new dims in the same order as the other
types, made all add routines able to optionally return a pointer to the
newly created object.
Removed some dead code (pg_var(), nc4_pg_var1(), nc4_pg_varm(), misc. small
routines, etc)
Fixed fill value handling for string types in nc4_get_vara().
Changed many malloc()+strcpy() pairs into calls to strdup().
Cleaned up misc. other minor Coverity issues.
