Howdy Sharma!

From your make output:
*** Checking HDF5 deflate filter setting and getting...Sorry! Unexpected 
result, tst_h_vars.c, line: 228
HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.8.3) thread 0:
  #000: H5Z.c line 1283 in H5Zget_filter_info(): Filter not defined
    major: Invalid arguments to routine
    minor: Bad value
  #001: H5Z.c line 933 in H5Z_find(): required filter is not registered
    major: Data filters
    minor: Object not found

You need to get HDF5-1.8.4, and you need to configure it with the --with-zlib= 
option to tell it where to find the zlib library.

Then rebuild the netCDF library and this problem will go away.

Without the zlib library, HDF5 cannot support on-the-fly compression of data, 
which netCDF-4 uses.

Thanks,

Ed
