NetCDF tries to select a fortran compiler, but can be overridden. If
you want to compile with mpi90, set FC and maybe FFLAGS. See:

I believe this means that you are trying to link a 64-bit program with
a 32-bit program. For SunOS specific notes, see:

http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/docs/netcdf-install/Building-on-64-Bit-Platforms.html

If you want to compile a 64-bit version of netCDF on the Sun, take a
look at:

http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/builds/SunOS_64_3_6_0.txt

In summary, go to the directory you unpacked netCDF into and:

make distclean

then set the environment flags for you desired fortran compiler
(FC), and then set FFLAGS and CFLAGS to -xarch=v9. In csh, something
like this:

setenv FC mpi90
setenv CFLAGS -xarch=v9
setenv FFLAGS -xarch=v9
setenv CXXFLAGS -xarch=v9

Then rerun the configure and make test

./configure && make extra_test
