+# XXX/CAVEAT:
+# The `dmregrid2' will take account for the *excluded* source regions
+# even after the FITS image creation.  Therefore, even if we fill the
+# excluded source regions using `dmfilth', then rotate the FITS image
+# using `dmregrid2', the filled regions are *EXCLUDED* in the rotated
+# image!
+# This problem is due to that `dmregrid2' considers the DSTYP1/DSVAL1, ...
+# keywords/attributes in the FITS header.
