This is an error that I think will be fixed by copying the newest config.guess 
script into your netcdf directory and trying again:

 http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.guess

You need to do a "make clean" and try again. Your ncgen is supposed to be made 
at this point in the build.

To set the F90 compiler, set the F90 variable before running configure. In sh 
or bash:

F90=xlf90_r ./configure

I suggest you get the config.guess and try it, and use 3.6.1. Set the F90 
compiler before the configure, and if everything doesn't work, please send me 
the *complete* output of the configure and the make test commands.

Good luck!
