Hmmmm. Autoconf and automake should not be involved in you building netcdf
under cygwin.

In fact, you should not be running them, and they would not very likely work
well. Cygwin is usually pretty far behind the curve on versions of these tools,
and we use some of the latest features in support of our fortran API, so you
can't use old versions.

The good news is that you don't have to. Just unpack the distribution and run
./configure && make.

The configure script was built by autoconf on *my* machine, where I know it is
up to date. It is not something a netCDF user should have to have, only the
netCDF development team need to have autoconf/automake.

Weird.

Go into the nc_test directory and run the nc_test.exe program from the command
line, and see what it tells you.

nc_test.exe is an executable which should give you some text output telling you
that it is running tests. Please let me know what happens...

Thanks,

Ed
