If you are using the Makefiles that came with the distribution, this
should have been invoked by "make" as

         /bin/cc -64 -c -O -I../libsrc  -DNDEBUG ncdump.c

which is what happens on our IRIX 64 6.2 system.  The "-I../libsrc"
comes from line 11 of src/ncdump/Makefile:

    INCLUDES    = -I../libsrc

and this in turn is defined as part of the "CPPFLAGS" macro in
src/macros.make.

You shouldn't need to modify any of the files in the distribution,
including Makefiles, the configure script, or either of "macros.make" or
"rules.make".  If you have modified any of these to try to get the
package to build, it might be best to just start over with a fresh
distribution.  

Otherwise, we'll need more information to diagnose the problem, since we
can't reproduce it here.  Please follow the steps for reporting a
problem under the "IF PROBLEMS OCCUR" heading at the bottom of the
INSTALL file, and send address@hidden all the information
listed there.  Thanks.
