[netCDF #LVC-614373]: how to arrive at integer4 on a 64 bit system

Hi Frank,

Try setting

   export CFLAGS="-O -m32"

and also add "-m32" to your FFLAGS and FCFLAGS.  You will get 32-bit libraries,
but they will still be able to read and write netCDF files with 64-bit offsets,
because netCDF was designed to work on 32-bit platforms as well as 64-bit 
platforms.

If that doesn't work, you might try using gfortran instead of g95.  We test with
gfortran ...
