As neither C nor C++ have any concept of records, the difference is
indeed quite significant! ;-D

If you want compatibility between C and Fortran files, either you
handle the record markers manually from your C code, or you wait until
someone implements access='stream' and/or form='binary', which
resemble the C io model. Better yet, use a library such as netcdf (or
hdf) which takes care of this issue as well as other portability
issues (size of variables, endianness etc.).
