I was running in to trouble where I was
- opening an hdf5 file with H5Fcreate with H5F_ACC_TRUNC
- writing some data
- closing it (calling flush and and making sure there were no open hdf5
handles)
- and then reopening it with another call to H5Fcreate and H5F_ACC_TRUNC to
write over the file.

This was resulting in corrupt hdf5 files (the various h5 tools would spit
out errors accessing the file). If I don't close and reopen it, the file
looked to be ok.

Is this something expected? Or a result of misuse of some kind? Thanks.

I got this with various hdf5 versions in the 1.8 series.
