Hi Alastair,

This issue has also been reported upstream, I've set the forwarded URL
accordingly. There are no comments in the upstream issue though,
that's not very promising.

This MOAB-dev post suggests that these limits are no longer applied in
netcdf >= 4.3.0, so we not need to change this now that we have 4.4.0
in Debian:

http://lists.mcs.anl.gov/pipermail/moab-dev/2013/005870.html

Can you verify that the change is still required for netcdf >= 4.3?

Fedora, Gentoo & FreeBSD also don't patch their netcdf package (some
have discussed this change for exodus2), so that doesn't seem common
at least.

Kind Regards,

Bas
