> 4GiB variables

[Katie Antypas]

Hi All,

We are seeing the 4GiB limitation on variable sizes on the Power 5 
machine Bassi at NERSC.  The last fixed-size variable in a file can be 
larger.  John Shalf's group is also seeing the same limitation, although 
he though he recalled speaking with Rob Ross about how this limitation 
was lifted in recent versions.  Is this the case?

We are using the latest version 1.0.2pre2 and setting the flag 
NC_64BIT_OFFSET.

Thanks,

Katie
