I suggest that you get the file

    ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/alpha.tar.Z

It contains an alpha-test version of the netCDF package -- one that,
hopefully, solves your problem.  Note, however, that it doesn't have
a user's guide -- you'll have to use the one in your existing doc/
subdirectory.

There are many entries containing the word `Linux' in the netCDF 
support-email database.  You could look there.  The URL is

    http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/glimpsedocs/ghnetcdf.html

If you don't get satisfaction from here, then, yes.

Please let me know when you've retieved the file so that I can dispose
of it (I don't like supporting multiple versions).
