Your netCDF installation is OK except for the Fortran-90 interface:

The above indicates that you are using version 5.1 of the Portland Group
Fortran-90 compiler (pgf90).  This compiler does not correctly handle
array sections as arguments.  Information on the bug and a URL for the
fix can be found at

    
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/getfile?file=/content/support/help/MailArchives/netcdf/msg02431.html

If you will not use the Fortran-90 interface, then you can safely use
the netCDF library; otherwise, you should fix your pgf90 and rebuild and
reinstall the netCDF package.
