Netcdf'ers:

In the intial release of netcdf-3.1a, I neglected
to "escape" some strings in libsrc/netcdf.3 and libsrc/libvers.c.
The result is that the string returned by nc_libvers() was not as intended
and the documentation was inconsistant.

This problem is corrected in the ftp distribution now.

This version string is arbitrary.
It is not necessary get a new copy of the distribution or patch
and rebuild.

For purists, there is patch appended to this message.
