Hi All,

I am trying to compile netcdf 3.6.3 on linux 64 bit.
 uname -a    Linux 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5 #1 SMP Thu Nov 29 12:18:58 EST 2007
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

my gcc version is 4.3.3

 gcc -v  Using built-in specs.
    Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
    Configured with: ./configure --prefix=/opt/gcc43
    Thread model: posix
    gcc version 4.3.3 (GCC)

I am configuring netcdf 3.6.3 using :

export FC=gfortran
export F90=gfortran
export F77=gfortran
export CC=gcc

./configure --prefix="<PATH>"

It gives below error :

    checking if Fortran "byte" is C "signed char"... configure: error:
Could not link conftestf.o and conftest.o

kindly provide some flags that can be used with configure command to solve
the above.

Moreover I am able to configure on the same machine ifort.
