Hmm... So, the only difference is that the one that gives problems
is not blowing the image up by a factor of 2... weird.

This looks bad.  It appears to be an indication that either there is
a memory problem or that something is being stepped on in memory.
I found and fixed a problem in the GINI ADDE 'get' server, so that should
not be the problem on climate (assuming that a current McIDAS is installed
there).

I will try to logon to climate sometime today to take a closer look.  I
may, however, not get to this today as I am trying to un-bury myself from
the load of support emails that were received in the past two days.

If the server fails, the client (IMGDISP in this case) will report
a failure.  Whether or not this is exactly the same problem as before
is not readily evident.

Perhaps your Debian 64-bit installation has uncovered a problem in the
GINI ADDE 'get' server; then again, perhaps not. I will need to poke
around on climate to see what I can see. If it is a coding problem, I
should be able to find it with the 'mcidas' login you provided me.
