Hi Leonardo,

You have to use a more recent version of HDF5, 1.8.8 or later, with 
netCDF-4.3.2.

There was a bug in HDF5-1.8.7 that we didn't test for in the corresponding 
netCDF 
version 4.1.3. The current netCDF version 4.3.2 detects the HDF5 bug when built 
with HDF5-1.8.7 or earlier, but builds fine with HDF5 versions 1.8.8 and later. 
If 
you have to rebuild HDF5 from source anyway, I would recommend just using the 
latest version 1.8.12, as that's what we've done the most testing with.
