We've never seen this error before.

If the netCDF library was built on the HP-UX 10.20 system, then, as part
of the build process, Fortran test programs were linked against it and
successfully executed.  So, in this case, then problem lies outside of
the netCDF package.

If, however, the netCDF library was not built from source but, instead,
was obtained in binary form, then you might check to see that the
environment that was used to create the netCDF library (operating system
version, etc.) is the same as the environment it's be used in.
