[evlatests] Very strange baseline error

[Steven T. Myers]

I am assuming that by "baselines" you mean the u,v,w?  If so, then I was
under the strong impression that those are not in the SDM but calculated
in the fillers (e.g. BDF2AIPS, asdm2MS) from antenna positions, time, and 
position. Thus I guess the question is then how the filler got confused...
