[netcdfgroup] File still in define mode after enddef called

Hello,

I Have an application that writes netCDF files. In certain circumstances it 
gets a -39 error when calling nc_put_var_short( ncid, varid, data ) ; even 
though an execution trace shows that nc_enddef( ncid ) ;was previously called. 
What's odd is that for some types of variables, the application shows exactly 
the same trace (including calling enddef() before put_var()) and it works. Of 
course, I'm 99% certain the error is in my code, but I'm wondering if there are 
specific kinds of errors that could cause this problem? Is there anyway to 
check and see if a file is currently in 'define mode'?

Thanks,
James
