We've encountered this problem with Intel's IFC compiler not finding
the getarg and iargc functions before.  Please see this support reply:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/glimpse/netcdf/4547

So far, we have no workaround as far as I know.

You also referred to failures when using the FAT32 partition:

I'm not sure whether you're saying that the IFC compiler couldn't find
the getarg/iargc functions when you compiled on the FAT32 partition,
or that you got it successfully built but then it couldn't write files
on the FAT32 partition.  I didn't see any symptom of the latter
problem in the output you sent (but I may have missed it among all the
Fortran compiler warnings).

If you have an example of the error you get when trying to write to
the FAT32 partition, it might help.  In the meantime, we'll set up a
FAT32 partition on one of our Linux systems here and see if we can
reproduce the problem, but this may take a couple of days. ...
