I couldn't locate this problem in any of our on-line documentation,
available from 

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/docs/index.html

Did you find the problem in a printed manual, in a source distribution
of a version before netCDF 3.6.0-p1, or at some particular URL?  If
you could identify the source more explicitly, we would make sure it's
fixed.  Thanks!
