Problem:
Since V4.2 the cloud detection setting has changed with a change of registry values to decommission individual set mmr and ecmwf to include a single value that chooses one of 3 schemes to use. Also addition of a cloud detection scheme from Zhunge and Zou which has an individual place holder in the namelist.
