This is puzzling. We must investigate carefully.

Would you please verify the following assertions:

    1.  "netcdf_test.f90" includes file "netcdf.f90".
    
    2.  "netcdf.f90" includes file "netcdf_overloads.f90".

    3.  "netcdf_overloads.f90" defines only two specific subroutines
        for handling 1-D vectors: "nf90_put_var_1D_EightByteInt", and
        "nf90_put_var_1D_EightByteReal".
        
    4.  The type-kind parameter of a default integer equals the
        EightByteInt parameter in file "typeSizes.f90" (THIS IS
        CRUCIAL).
        
    5.  "nf90_put_var_1D_EightByteInt" is defined in file
        "netcdf_expanded.f90"
        
    6.  "nf90_put_var_1D_EightByteInt" handles 1-D integer
        vectors of type-kind "EightByteInt".
