We came across this because we use the following to convert a gmeta file 
to a gif:

med -e "1,\$ split \$ tmp" gmeta
ctrans -d sun -record 1 tmp1.ncgm | rasttopnm | ppmtogif > gmeta.1.gif

If you know of a better way, that would be great.

I'm also attaching a patch that attempts to clean up some implicit 
declaration warnings.  There are still lots more, but this is a start.

Any idea when the next ncl release will be?
