20010619: netcdf v3.5.0 build notes for RH Linux & Absoft f90

Bill,

Thanks for informing us how to install the netCDF package using AbSoft's
Fortran-90 compiler.  I've added your email to the "Other Builds" web
page at

    http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/other-builds.html

Please look at it and let me know if it's OK.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson   <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu>

> Hi

> I recently picked up netcdf v3.5.0 for use on a Redhat Linux v6.1
> system with the AbSoft ProFortran v6 f90 compiler.
> 
> It is working ok.  But as with builds of previous versions of netcdf,
> I had to do a few manual customizations in the build process in order
> for it to install on the above system.  I thought you might like to have
> my notes for possible use in helping others with a similar system.

> A summary of the steps I used follows.
