I've run into this problem several times. I think with the ncdf_
routines that if the type on any attribute or variable fails to match
the declared type, that you're going to get an error when you close
the file. Seems like the ncdf routines should give you the error when
you define the attribute/variable not down the road when you go to
close the file. Anyway, the bottom line is check types very carefully
when writing NetCDF files.

Cheers,
