OK ... I see the issue.
The v5.1.0 contributed.ncl had
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Contributed/obj_anal_ic.shtml
This *NCL language* function was *slow* when a large number of values
were input. Hence, I replaced it with a fortran version.
The fortran had several additional features including the ability
to 'blend' different iterations. Likely, that is where the differences
occurred.

You can still use the original function by using the undocumented
function in contributed.ncl called
function obj_anal_deprecated (....)
This is te original v5.1.0 version .... just a different name.

Also, you may wish to look at the Application URL "Random data to grid"
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/rdm2grid.shtml
It shows several different interpolations.

Good luck
