[netcdf-porting] Porting NETCDF to SGI Altix XE240

[Arthur Mizzi]

I'm trying to build Netcdf from scratch and not sure if it's working.
After running ./configure, I reviewed the Makefile and find stuff like
"build_triplet=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu" I'm running Redhat linux
Enterprise Version 5 in 64-bit mode which is relatively new.  Does any
one know if the ./configure can handle that version of linux?  Also, the
SGI platform and the Intel compiler are for 64-bits.  I suspect I need a
64-bit flag for the gnu C/C++ compiler, should I do that by editing the
Makefile?

I always feel safer building from source...
