           The original nc4_find_dim searched up the group tree looking for the given

           I changed nc4_fnd_dim to use the dimid directly using h5->alldims.

           been defined, one or more of the values in var->dimids will have a
           legitimate value.
           The solution I choose is to modify nc4_var_list_add to initialize dimids to
