Problem creating hdf file from PyNio

I recently installed PyNio/PyNgl from binaries provided by Mary Haley
(PyNGL-1.3.0b2.linux-i686-gcc412.tar.gz and
PyNIO-1.3.0b2.linux-i686-gcc412.tar.gz). I installed on an i386
platform with RHEL 4, gcc 3.4.6, and python 2.6.2.

I can successfully read hdf4 files, but I am unable to create a new hdf
file.

f = Nio.open_file('test.hdf', 'c') fails with a 'nccreate: Bad Flag' error.

Should i be able to create an hdf file? I can create a netCDF file.

Thanks,
Andrew
