Martin and Jean-Michel, shall we:

1) make SEAICE_clipVelocities=.false. the default and change  
verification output accordingly,

2) make SEAICE_clipVelocities=.false. the default but set to .true. in  
the verification experiments for backward compatibility ... with a  
warning that clipping should not be used, or

3) leave things as is?

There are two verification experiments that are affected by  
SEAICE_clipVelocities:

SEAICE_clipVelocities=.true.
Y Y Y Y>16<16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 16 pass

SEAICE_clipVelocities=.false.
