[netCDF #SPN-205342]: Netcdf with ifort

Hello Ashwin,

Are you able to load the generated core file into gdb? If so, that may provide 
some information about what is crashing and where.  

Besides this, answering the following questions may help narrow down what is 
going on:

1. Can you open other netcdf files without a core dump?
2. Can you read this file with the `ncdump` command-line command, or other 
netCDF-aware programs?

It sounds like the file may be corrupt, but we should be able to figure that 
out.  If the file is relatively small, can you provide a copy of it for me to 
look at?

Also, appending data to an existing netCDF file is possible. Adding data to an 
existing variable requires that the variable have an "unlimited" dimension, and 
that the data be added along that dimension. Appending new metadata or 
additional new variables can be significantly more efficient with a netCDF-4 
file.
