Hi Piyush,
The error is due to the use of the "-ansi" option in CFLAGS:
CFLAGS='-O -m64 -ansi -FPIC'
If you remove that option, things should compile OK and "make check"
should work.
If you unset CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS before compiling, "make check" should
also work fine on your platform. The configure script determines when
various options are needed, and setting "-Dgfortran" in CPPFLAGS is not
needed for building the netCDF C library.
We haven't tested our software with the "-ansi" option of gcc, but using
it finds uses of "//" for comments, which became valid syntax in the C99
standard. Nevertheless, we'll try to replace these comment sections with
the C90 sysntax before the next release.
