Yes, that will work fine.  I made a mistake in my NCVGT() call,
forgetting the one dimensional array of complex numbers had been defined
as a two-dimensional array of reals, so I should have used length 2
vectors for the start and count arguments, as you have done.

P.S.  I've forwarded your general recommendations for improving the
Fortran interface to Steve Emmerson, who is now working on an all-new
Fortran interface for netCDF-3.
