I have built the netCDF package on Linux 2.4.18 systems, so this
possible.

The last error message above indicates a serious problem.  The reason
should be in the file "config.log" (not "configure.log") which is
described near the end of the file INSTALL.html.  Would you please send
me the file "config.log".
