Yes, I suggest you get the latest release of netCDF, version 3.3.1,
available from

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

This has been tested on a J90 under 9.2.0.3 (or 9.0.2.3?) and there are
detailed instructions about what compiler flags were required to get it
to work in the INSTALL file included as part of the software.
