This consists of a persistent attribute named
_NCProperties plus two computed attributes
_IsNetcdf4 and _SuperblockVersion.

The code for handling character constants
in datalists in ncgen has some problems.
1. It failed on large constants
2. It did not handle e.g. var = 'a', 'b', ...
in the same way that ncgen3 did.
3. The code for generate.c and genchar.c needed
some refactoring to make it a little simpler
(but not simple).
Columbia server does not serve up proper
opendap DDS replies. The Dataset {...} name
changes depending on if the request has certain
kinds of constraints.
Code for a hack was not being used, so restore it.
The fix is to effectively ignore differences in
Dataset node names if the code is coming from
columbia.edu.
2. [NCF-278]
The ncgen code is improperly typing int64 integer constants
as uint64.
3. [NCF-279]
Empty string constants were not being properly
filled when their target array is length 1 or more.
1. Updated the ncgen manual (ncgen.1)
to discuss handling of ambiguous
enumeration constant references.
2. Fixed the test case. It is currently
XFAIL'd until such time as ncdump
is modified to output properly
disambiguated enumeration constant
references.
implementation. Deleted obsolete win32, soon to be replaced by Ward's
Windows 32- and 64-bit fixes for building with MSYS/MinGW. Made
cosmetic cleanup to output of "make check" to make it easier for users
to interpret. Fixed bug NCF-175: ncdump -t incorrectly interpreting
units attribute (such as "days") without a base time (such as "since
2007-01-01") as a time unit.
Changed name to 4.2.1-beta.
naming convention.
o Modified ncdump shell, test scripts so that the extra
digit in an exponent on windows wouldn't be a problem.
o Modified configure.ac to check for the zlib dll provided
by the zlib group; they recommend using the official dll for
windows builds.
