Good morning Greg,

Thanks for the patch; these changes look straightforward and
worthwhile, I will see about getting them integrated into the
code for our next release. Thanks!

> One other potential issue is that there is a nciter.c and nciter.h in

You have a good point; the potential for conflict is there.  Let me discuss 
this with Russ and Dennis and see what our options are.
