This is a known bug and is fixed in the latest "beta" release.  The
solution can also be found in a previous support-email at

    http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/mfs/70/4643?43#mfs

Here's the relevant excerpt:

    OK, this is a known bug that is fixed in the netcdf-3.5.1 beta
    distribution.  You can make the changes to the 3.5 file yourself by
    editing netcdfcpp.h and changing the lines that are causing the
    problems.  The fix is exactly as the make log lines indicate: replace
    the friend declaration with 'friend class'.  

    For example:

    at line 157, change:

        friend NcFile;

    to:

        friend class NcFile;


    Don't forget to do the same thing for lines 360 and 391 in netcdfcpp.h.

    After doing this, you should be able to continue your make.

Don't hesitate to contact me if you have additional questions.
