You may safely ignore the warning from the configure script about the
lack of a Fortran compiler.

The above looks good.

You're in trouble.  The netCDF distribution can *only* be built by a
Standard C compiler and your "cc" compiler isn't standard.

Check your manual page on the "cc" compiler.  Is there a flag to make it
a Standard C compiler?  Is the GNU C compiler (gcc) installed?
