Hi: There are a couple of new github issues that are potential C
library bugs discovered by python users.
1) netCDF4 cannot read from little-endian HDF4 files
(https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/113): If an HDF4 file is
created with little endian data, the netcdf c library fails to read it
(ncdump says "NetCDF: Bad type ID.")
2) endian-ness flag not saved in file for float data types
(https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/112): If a float variable
is created with a specified endian-ness, 'ncdump -s' shows that the
_Endianness attribute is not set. It is with integer variables though.
Regards, Jeff
