Re: RANGS HighRes database and NCL v5.0.0

Slava,

I was able to reproduce your problem using version 5.0.0 on a system
we have here. I also verified that it works with a beta version of
5.0.1.

We will research this to see if there's a work-around for 5.0.0 users
(one work-around is to turn off map fill, but this is not always
reasonable).

Meanwhile, if you need a beta version of 5.0.1, email me separately
and let me know what kind of system you have ("uname -a" and "gcc
--version" if using Linux).
