Noted.
Unfortunately hdf5 is very poor in maintaining compatibility.
In theory 1.8.15 and 1.8.16 should be API compatible...

I was planning to wait octave 4.0.1 before bumping netcdf to 4.4.0.

But I will prepare  netcdf-4.4.0 and netcdf-fortran-4.4.3 and bump
netcdf-cxx4-4.2.1 just to be sure.

Marco
