enhancements.

>From the release notes:
4.0.1-beta1 2008-10-16
Fixed Fortran 90 int64 problems.
Rewrote HDF5 read/write code in accordance with
performance advice from Kent.
Fixed memory leaks in gets/puts of HDF5 data.
Fixed some broken tests for parallel I/O (i.e. MPI)
builds.
Fixed some cross-compile problems.
Rewrote code which placed bogus errors on the HDF5
error stack, trying to open non-existant attributes
and variables. Now no HDF5 errors are seen.
Removed man subdirectory. Now man4 subdirectory is
used for all builds.
Fixed netCDF-4 bug for multiple unlimited dimensions
in the same variable.
Changed build so that users with access to parallel
make can use it.
Added experimental support for accessing data through
OPeNDAP servers using the DAP protocol (use
--enable-opendap to build it).
Fixed ncdump bugs with array field members of compound
type variables. Fixed ncdump bug of assuming default
fill value for data of type unsigned byte.
