[netCDF #ATH-750680]: installing NetCDF on osx10.4 G5dual

That's what I am here for...

NetCDF is known to work with both Absoft and GNU compilers, but I don't have an 
absoft compiler here to test on.

Try setting CPPFLAGS=-DAbsoftProFortran

Do a make distclean, and start over.

If this doesn't work, please send the *complete* output of configure and make 
test.

Thanks!
