[daip] CLCAL and flagged SN table solutions

[Matt Lister]

Hi Eric et al., I have a quick question about CLCAL for you,
I would like CLCAL to smooth and apply a SN table for which some of the entries 
have been flagged previously with
SNEDT. (These entries thus have weight = -1).  When I run CLCAL with the inputs 
below, it completely
ignores the flags, and uses all of the SN table entries. Is there any parameter 
that controls this behavior?
Perhaps I'm missing something.  I've tried doblank = -1, 0, 1, and all give the 
same result.

Thanks,
Matt
