[netCDF #CAM-704494]: problem compiling netcdf f90 example

Hi Tatiana,

I didn't know about that updated information from Intel, so thanks for pointing 
it out.

The ifort compiler is looking for the netcdf.mod file, which got installed in 
the include/
directory.  Perhaps it is only looking for it in the lib/ directory.  I'm not 
sure what the 
ifort option is for specifying where to find .mod module files.  The 
documentation I found
says to use -I dirname in one place and -module dirname in another place.  It's 
possible that
the nf-config command is not properly specifying the right right flag for 
finding modules,
so try manually inserting -I or -module followed by the directory name where 
the netcdf.mod
file was installed.  Alternatively, you could try copying it into your current 
directory to see
if it's found there.

That error is probably just a consequence of not finding the netcdf.mod file, 
which defines types
for function returns, among other things.

Probably nothing, it's apparently a bug in the netcdf-fortran-4.2 nf-config 
command, that
it doesn't provide the correct syntax for specifying whare modules are 
installed.
