You are correct: setting the FC variable to the empty string doesn't
disable the FORTRAN interface in the netCDF 2.3.2 distribution.  For
what it's worth, it is fixed in the next release.

I suggest manually editing the file fortran/Makefile and setting the FC
macro to the empty string.  You'll find the definition on line 82.
Change it from

    FC              = f77

to

    FC              =

Then, go to the top-level source directory and execute `make all test'.
You shouldn't be bothered by anything FORTRAN.

If you rerun the `configure' script, then you'll have to reset the FC
variable to the empty string again.  For a more permanent solution, you
can zero it in the master makefile port/master.mk.in.
