You should be able to successfully build the netCDF package on your
system using either the pgf90 or ifort(1) compilers: others have done
so.

The above indicates that the configure script was not told what
Fortran-calling-C conventions to use.  This is consistent with your
problem.  Because the conventions for the ifort(1) compiler as the same
as for the pgf90(1) compiler, the C macro "pgiFortran" must be defined.

Please try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 and 4 described at

    3.  Set the relevant environment variables.  Execute the commands

            export CC=gcc 
            export CPPFLAGS="-DNDEBUG -DpgiFortran"
            export CFLAGS=-O
            export FC=ifort 
            export F90=ifort 
            export FLIBS="-Vaxlib" 
            export FFLAGS="-O -mp -dynamic-libcxa -cm -w95" 

        or

            setenv CC gcc 
            setenv CPPFLAGS "-DNDEBUG -DpgiFortran"
            setenv CFLAGS -O
            setenv FC ifort 
            setenv F90 ifort 
            setenv FLIBS "-Vaxlib" 
            setenv FFLAGS "-O -mp -dynamic-libcxa -cm -w95" 

        depending on your user-shell.

    4.  Perform steps 6 and 9 described at
