Assuming you built the netCDF-4 and HDF5 libraries as shared libraries, which
would be the default unless you configured with "--disable-shared", you
should add the path to the shared libraries to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable before running the configure script.

For example

  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/usr/local/lib
  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  ./configure ...

If this gets you further but you still have problems, I recommend using
the latest version of the netCDF C library, 4.2.1.1, and installing that
before trying to build the C++ library.

The configure script in version 4.2.1.1 no longer supports the "--with-hdf5="
option, so you need to specify where you installed the HDF5 library using the
CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS environment variables, as described here:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/build_default.html

For example, you could use

  CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib ./configure
