BUG:	ECIDENTIFY and ECREIDENTIFY are supposed to work in terms of 'physical'
	coordinates which are independent of different image sections
	applied to the data at different stages in the reduction process.
	However, there was a bug where a transformation was applied in the
	wrong direction.  A symptom would be that marking a feature would
	put the tick mark in the wrong place.  The only workaround is to
	either avoid any image sections in the reduction steps leading up
	to these tasks or to make the two coordinate systems the same by
	resetting the physical coordinate system with WCSRESET
	(i.e. wcsreset  wcs=physcial).  For those less familiar
	with the logical and physical coordinate systems, if there are
	keywords beginning with LTV and LTM keywords in the header then
	there is a physical coordinate system defined which would usually
	be different than the image based logical coordinate system.

STATUS:	Fixed for the next release.
