[GEMPAK #MMY-409918]: gpwarn segmentation fault

Hi Brendon,

Still investigating this one for you.

Discovered that when the full path name is specified 
(WWFIL=/home/data/gempak/nwx/watch_warn/NPW/2009051814.NPW) it becomes 
truncated after 20 characters.  I have fixed this but am still trying to 
pin-point the source of the segmentation fault.  When I do I will send you the 
new source file to recompile and I'll wrap the change into the current 5.11.4 
source distribution.

Best,
