Kim,

I think the fix is now in the CVS.

Essentially I did what we discussed. Internally all temperature values are 
stored in the native Celsius. At the time of conversion to a ascii string, 
the conversion to/from the specified temperature scale is done.

This means, among other factors, the internal cache is in Celsius, so can be 
shared even by modules that have different temperature scales.
