libnc-dap has a copy of the netcdf library in the code, so it

If all the fedora space apps which need netcdf3 support use the
libnc-dap implementation, then we reduce the issue to exactly one
codebase... that shared library. If there was a security issue, do we
even know how many things in the fedora space are building against the
static libraries in netcdf-devel right now?  It's tough to get a
handle on how many things are building with netcdf support with the
available repoquery tool since there's no shared library requires to
match against.  We'll have to dig through all the spec files and look
for netcdf-devel.  That's not something I'm looking forward to doing.
