[netCDF #OYJ-601121]: configure:4102: error: C compiler cannot create executables

Hi Beth,

The problem is the old version of the gcc C compiler you have installed:

  configure:3982: /usr/bin/gcc --version >&5
  gcc (GCC) 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1640)
  Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

which is not usable with the version of MacOS X you are running.  You should 
either
install the Xcode Developer Tools that came as optional software with your Mac 
(it's on
the DVD), or register as an ADC member (it's free) and download Xcode Tools from

  http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/

to get a usable version of gcc, for example:

  configure:3974: checking for C compiler version
  configure:3982: cc --version >&5
  i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)

is what I see when I run configure.  That's fine if you don't need the netCDF 
Fortran API,
but Xcode Tools doesn't include a Fortran compiler, so if you need that too, I 
recommend
using the gfortran and compatible gcc you can download from

  http://hpc.sourceforge.net/

Specifically, get the  gcc-leopard-intel-bin.tar.gz (Intel Mac) binary from 
that site and follow
installation instructions.

Good luck!
