If you want to build the Fortran interface for netCDF on Linux, you
need to follow the instructions in the INSTALL file for Linux,
specifically you need to set the required environment variables
*before* invoking the configure script, and you need to use fort77,
g77, or pgf90 instead of f77 as your Fortran compiler, with the
corresponding environment settings.  Either see the INSTALL file in
the top level of your netCDF 3.4 sources, or the more recent version
that explains how to set environment variables from various shells at

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

I just tried the following settings on a RedHat Linux system, and it
seemed to work fine:

 CPPFLAGS="-DNDEBUG -Df2cFortran"
 CFLAGS=-O
 FC=/usr/bin/fort77
 FFLAGS="-O -Nx400 -w"

Before you try to rebuild, make sure you follow the instructions in
the INSTALL file about removing the "config.cache" file and running
"make clean".  Please let us know if you still have problems.
