The only dll currently on our ftp site is
pub/netcdf/contrib/win32/netcdf3.3Win32DLL.zip
contributed by Steve Simpson.

This is just the C interface, as if one ran 'make' in libsrc.
So, you couldn't just link FORTRAN programs against it.

However, someone here has been assigned to build the (entire) 3.4
release on win32. It would make sense for us to make the resulting DLL
available. When we do that, you would be able to just link FORTRAN programs
against that.
