The above occurs because the C compiler doesn't know what type of
calling conventions to use for C functions that are intended to be
called by Fortran routines.  After searching our support-email database
for "efc" and the "other builds" instructions at

    http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/other-builds.html

I belive you should try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 through 5 described near the end of the file
        INSTALL.html.

    3.  Ensure that the environment variable CPPFLAGS contains the
        string "-DpgiFortran", e.g.,

            export CPPFLAGS=-DpgiFortran

        or

            setenv CPPFLAGS -DpgiFortran

        depending on your user-shell.


    4.  Perform steps 6 through 9 described near the end of the file
        INSTALL.html.

Please let me know if this helps.
