This is an error in trying to link a C++ test program with the C++
interface ("CC" is the C++ compiler), which was apparently compiled
correctly.  I've never seen this error before, but I notice when you
ran the "configure" script there's several results that were
"(cached)", indicating the configure script is using the results from
a previous "configure" run rather than computing the results from
scratch.  To prevent this, please remove the file "config.cache" and
run "make clean" before running the "configure" script, to make sure
it isn't using results from a "config.cache" file generated long ago
or on a different platform.

If that doesn't fix the problem, please tell us which version of C++
compiler you are using, by running "CC -V" and sending us the output.
On our Solaris 5.7 system, we have:

    $ CC -V
    CC: WorkShop Compilers 5.0 98/12/15 C++ 5.0

Finally, if we can't reproduce the problem here, and you don't really
need the C++ netCDF interface (none of the Unidata software uses it),
you might be able to get around the problem by just building netCDF
without the C++ interface, by setting the CXX environment variable to
"" before you invoke the "configure" script.
