Coward!  :-)

Try the following around line 321 (not 285 as I previously mentioned):

    #else
            fprintf(stderr, "NCxdrfile_create(): path=\"%s\"\n", path);
            fprintf(stderr, "NCxdrfile_create(): fmode=0x%x\n", fmode);
            fprintf(stderr, "NCxdrfile_create(): ControlString=\"%s\"\n",
                    ControlString);
            fd = ffopens(path, fmode, 0666, 0, &stat, ControlString) ;
    #endif
            if( fd == -1 ) {
                    perror("ffopens()");
                    nc_serror("filename \"%s\"", path) ;
                    return (-1);
            }

If you can, send me your manual page on ffopens().
