From the above, it appears as if you ran the "configure" script
in a directory that had previously been used to build the netCDF
library for a different platform, so the old "config.cache" file was
used and gave some incorrect configuration values.  For example, the
line

   checking for ANSI C header files... (cached) no

yields a "yes" when I build netCDF from the sources on an IRIX 6.5
platform.

In order to build netCDF on your IRIX 6.5 Octane, please try the
following steps from the netCDF src/ directory (containing the INSTALL
file): 

    1.  Execute the command "make distclean".

    2.  Remove the file "config.cache" if it exists.

    3.  Set your environment variables as before as indicated by the
        INSTALL file.  In particular, if you are interested in the
        Fortran interface, the INSTALL file suggests you use the f90
        instead of f77 compiler:

          IRIX f90 Note: On IRIX 6.x platforms with version 7
          compilers, the f90 compiler accepts 'integer*1', while f77
          accepts both 'integer*1' and 'byte'. Using FC=f90 forces the
          configure script to select 'integer*1'.  The resulting *.inc
          files and test configurations will then work with either
          compiler.
          
        An updated INSTALL file that includes IRIX 6.5 environment
        variable settings that worked is available from

          http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/INSTALL

    4.  Execute the configure script.  The output should be similar to
        what I have appended (though you may be missing one or more
        compilers I used).

    5.  Execute the command "make", "make test", and optionally "make
        install".  If you encounter problems with any of these steps,
        please send the details, as described at the end of the
        INSTALL file, to "address@hidden".

Using the environment variable settings:

  CC=/bin/c89
  CFLAGS=-g
  FC=/bin/f90
  FFLAGS=-g
  CXX=/bin/CC
