Tom Yoksas responded to this on January 25th.  I'll just restate that it
appears that the problem is one of building your application (the
`lnetcdf' looks suspiciously like the `-lnetcdf' reference to the netCDF
library that would be necessary to build a netCDF-using application).

So, is the problem building your application or running it?  If the
problem is building the application, then I'll need to see the output
(i.e. error messages) from the linker/loader (typically ld(1)).  If the
problem is running the application, then I'll need to see the FORTRAN (I
presume) code.
