When I build with mpich, nc_test fails with errors like this:

*** testing nc_put_varm_schar ...
FAILURE at line 9540 of test_put.c: NetCDF: Numeric conversion not
representable
FAILURE at line 9540 of test_put.c: NetCDF: Numeric conversion not
representable
FAILURE at line 445 of test_put.c: nc_get_var1_schar: NetCDF: Numeric
conversion not representable
FAILURE at line 445 of test_put.c: nc_get_var1_schar: NetCDF: Numeric
conversion not representable
 305 good comparisons.

I think this is a result of a recent merge which changes the way type
conversions are done.

This should be fixed...

Thanks,
Ed
