I'm not sure I understand your last statement.  The current version,
netCDF 2.4.3, uses exactly the same file format as netCDF 2.3.2, and is
backward compatible with the netCDF 2.3.2 interface.  It should work
fine with other programs using the 2.3.2 interface, except that programs
that use NC_LONG data need to be recompiled with the new library.  If
there are other incompatibilities that prevent using the current version
of the library, we'd like to know about them.

Nevertheless, I tried to duplicate the problem you are seeing by
building netCDF 2.3.2 from a freshly unpacked compressed tar file on a
Solaris 2.5 platform, and it seemed to work fine.  Perhaps you just need
to do a "make clean" from the top level before running "make all test".

I've added a few more notes below on the differences I see ...

When I ran "make all", the following was output for the fortran directory:

    making `all' in directory /a/zero/home/russ/tmp/netcdf-232pl2/fortran

    ./fortc -L . -O sunos common.inc > netcdf.inc
    ./fortc -L . -O sunos jackets.src > jackets.c
    cc -c -I../libsrc -DNDEBUG -O jackets.c
    ar rcuv ../libsrc/libnetcdf.a jackets.o

I suspect you have a left-over "jackets.c" file from some previous build
that may have been for a different platform, so a "make clean" is
probably required to get the appropriate "jackets.c" file generated
again.
