Great!
This problem was caused by an inadvisable call to H5close() inside the
netCDF library. Of course it was very silly of me to do this - how can
the netCDF library know if you are still using the HDF5 library?
The call to H5close() was removed, and thus the problem will not occur
for you.
Thanks,
Ed
