Hi Ed

There's a bug you may be aware of in ncdump -v applied to netCDF-4 files.
It always reports 'group not found'. The reason is that only varid is returned 
by dumplib.c:nc_inq_gvarid() and saved in a list; the associated ncid isn't 
returned or saved. But for netCDF-4 it's both you need.

Regards
John
