Thanks, this problem and a couple of others are fixed in our latest
beta release at

  ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-3.5.1-beta.tar.Z

From the RELEASE_NOTES:

                Added support for eight-byte integers in Fortran90
                interface.  This permits using F90 with Cray
                platforms, for example.

                Increased advisory limits in C netcdf.h and Fortran
                netcdf.inc for maximum number of dimensions,
                variables, and attributes.

                Changed C++ declarations "friend NcFile" to "friend
                class NcFile" in cxx/netcdfcpp.h to avoid conform to
                standard.
