Description

I've found some problems with the output header fields for the smf files. One serious problem is the value of MJD-OBS in the PHU vs the extension headers. These seem to be rather different, possibly because they are being generated from different sources. As an example, see:

ipp004:~eugene/data/bdsearch.20081225/smf.files/o4726g0105o.33162.cm.5860.smf

ipp004: fhead smf.files/o4765g0072o.43723.cm.5880.smf | grep MJD
MJD-OBS = 54765.4509398148 / Time of observation
ipp004: fhead -x 0 smf.files/o4765g0072o.43723.cm.5880.smf | grep MJD
MJD-OBS = 54765.45016 / Modified Julian date at start of observation

Other examples exist, though the error may not be present for all exposures. (This may be a lingering effect of the earlier MJD-OBS vs SHUTOUTC issue).
