The only problematical thing I saw in this file was the following:

The above test code should not have failed (our egcs successfully
compiles it).

I didn't see anything problematical in this file.

This file indicated a successful build of the C interface of the netCDF
package.  It's only the Fortran interface that failed somehow:

I don't know why this occurred.  And, unfortunately, we don't have a
"pgf90" compiler here with which to duplicate your problem.

Though it seems an unlikely cause of the problem, you might investigate
the code above that the egcs compiler failed to compile.

You might also try posting to the netCDF mailing-list to try and find
another Linux/pfg90 user.
