The next command that is executed from the Makefile is something like:

    gcc -o ncdump -O ncdump.o vardata.o dumplib.o ../libsrc/libnetcdf.a -lm

to create the ncdump executable from the 3 compiled objects and the compiled
netcdf library.  This should be echoed before it's executed.  You might try
invoking this manually to see if you can see an error message from it.
