The subroutine family 'ext_ncd_get_dom_ti_real' is part of WRF, not
netCDF.  If you look in the WRF documentation for
"ext_pkg_get_dom_ti_type" you will find it in section 7.4.9 of the
document "Weather Research and Forecast Model 1.2: Software Design and
Implementation DRAFT" at

  http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/users/WRF_arch_03.doc

The name "ext_pkg_get_dom_ti_type" refers to a family of subroutines,
because "pkg" can be either "ncd" for netCDF, "hdf" for HDF, etc., and
"type" can be any of real, real8, integer, logical, or character.

So the linker error message is not finding the library that contains
the WRF Fortran routine "ext_ncd_get_dom_ti_real_".  The fact that the
name it is looking for ends with "_" but the documented name doesn't
may be a ,m but I'm only guessing.

So I'm afraid this is a WRF problem, not a netCDF problem, and I have
to refer you to someone who knows something about WRF to answer the
question.  I can't find the email of a WRF support group, but you
might try someone in the Web Site, Workshops, and Model Support
Working Group listed in

  http://wrf-model.org/ADMINISTRATION/WRF_directory.html

Sorry I can't be of further help.
