[MITgcm-devel] Can we fix this with sed?

[Baylor Fox-Kemper]

Hello All,
   Just encountered the following error when restarting from an mnc 
pickup file:

(PID.TID 0000.0001)    25 @  6.400000000000000E+07              /* J =  
1: 25 */
(PID.TID 0000.0001)     ;
(PID.TID 0000.0001)
  NetCDF ERROR: NC_UNLIMITED size already in use
NetCDF ERROR: NC_UNLIMITED size already in use

MNC ERROR: MNC_DIM_INIT ERROR: cannot create dim 'T' in file 
'pickup.0000019200.000001.nc
STOP ABNORMAL END: package MNC statement executed


Seems odd that it's trying to create a dimension in the pickup file...  
Here's the ncdump from the pickup...  It seems to already have an 
unlimited T dimension...  Any idea what's the problem?
