I have recreated the error using cygwin.

A couple of things I noticed so far:
1. It appears to actually create the output netcdf4 file.
2. A diff of the metadata appears to show that the netcdf3 metadata
   and the netcdf4 metadata are consistent except that the netcdf4
   metadata is missing all attributes named 'CLASS' or 'NAME'.
   Weird.
