The C++ interface is experimental and so is not compiled or installed by
default as part of building the netCDF library and utilities.  

To build it, you should first get and apply patches 3 and 4 to the netCDF
release (available via anonymous FTP as files 2.3.2-patch3 and 2.3.2-patch4
from ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/).  Then rebuild the netCDF
library beginning with the `configure' step (this is important; it's not
enough to just re-make it).  After `make all' and `make test' show the
library is working OK, change to the c++ directory, look at the README file,
and build the experimental C++ interface with `make all'.  You can test it
from that directory with `make test'.

Let me know if this doesn't work.
