Problem in compiling example programs

[Wei-keng Liao]

Hi, Lyndon

ncmpidump is built as an MPI application.
Hence you should run it like all other MPI applications.
For example, mpiexec -n 2 ncmpidump file.nc
If you run it this way, you will see two copies of the
dumps, each printed from one of the 2 MPI processes.

I often use it to print the header of a netCDF file in
CDF-5 format, running on one process. The Unidata's
ncdump currently cannot recognize CDF-5 format.

If you have a different expectation on the outputs
produced from ncmpidump, please let us know.
