Try compiling as follows:

 ifort -I/sw/opt/netcdf7/include netcdf-include.f90 -o myprog 
-L/sw/opt/netcdf7/lib -lnetcdff -lnetcdf

or use gfortran instead of "ifort" if that doesn't work.  One or the other of 
these ought to result in 
an executable program named "myprog".  The -I option must appear before the 
name of the
source file to tell the compiler where to find the .mod files.  Some Fortran 
compilers use -M
instead of -I for this.  The -L and -l options must appear after the source 
file name.  The
-lnetcdff option must appear before -lnetcdf because the Fortran library is 
separate from the
C library for netCDF and calls C functions.

The output of nc-config that you showed says the library was compiled with 
"ifort" rather than gfortran,
so it may be necessary to use ifort to compile and link Fortran programs if 
gfortran and ifort have
different conventions for how to call C functions from Fortran.
