[hdf-forum] Error when exiting program using hdf5 1.6.8

Seems the problem followed me to another Mac when I came home do
definitely something wrong. Almost seems like I am stomping on some
memory somewhere. I'll try some other platforms and see what happens.
Unfortunately all I have at home this weekend is Windows XP via
Bootcamp but at least it would give me a sanity check. Just seems odd
that after almost a year of development I start hitting this bug now.
I guess more frustrating than anything else.

Thanks for the input.
Mike
