I created a bundle:

dolfin-walker-2008-09-03.hg

whose description is:

"This patch adds in support for reading in an additional 'coordinates' tag 
in the mesh.xml file, and uses this information to create a Function* 
called mesh_coordinates that is contained in the MeshGeometry class.  This 
function stores higher order mesh coordinate data that comes from assuming 
the mesh elements are mapped using a finite element function higher order 
than linear.  Another boolean array is created inside MeshGeometry that 
indicates which elements are ACTUALLY curved, and which are just straight 
(standard).  This is completely backwards compatible with previous mesh 
formats."

I followed the directions in the DOLFIN manual to update.  I'm not sure if 
there is anything else I need to do for this update.

Anyway, the next step in this higher order mesh format, is to modify 
UFCCell.h and ufc::cell.
