Hello,
The 5D dataset in this NetCDF file causes an error on Windows but not on
Linux.
http://staff.acecrc.org.au/~mdsumner/gdal/foo.nc
The Windows FWTools is recent, and the Linux version is old:
Linux: GDAL 1.5dev, FWTools 1.3.2, released 2007/06/01
Windows: GDAL 1.6.0dev, FWTools 2.2.6, released 2008/08/22
Is this a known problem? Variables of 2D, 3D and 4D all seem fine on
Windows even
when in a file containing a 5D variable.
I've put details below for (1) the file, (2) the SDS on Linux, (3) the
SDS on Windows.
Cheers, Mike.

3. On Windows this fails with error message box:

The "xx" SDS works fine on both platforms:
