The above message contained the following:

Version 3.4 of the netCDF package doesn't support the Portland Group's
Fortran compiler.  Version 3.5-beta8 does, however.  I therefore suggest
that you obtain the latter version and install it.  Installation
instructions and examples for Linux and the Portland Group's Fortran
compiler will be found in the top-level file "INSTALL.html".

I don't understand why you're missing the file "src/fortran/netcdf.inc".
That file is in both the beta6 and beta8 versions of the netCDF package.
Also, it is not removed by any makefile rule.

Do NOT copy a "netcdf.inc" file from a previous version.
