Mark,

It appears that the environmental variables OS_BIN and OS_LIB are being 
redefined in your Makeinc.linux64_pgi and that this is the source of the 
problem.  OS_BIN and OS_LIB are defined in Gemenviron.profile as 
$NAWIPS/os/$NA_OS/bin and $NAWIPS/os/$NA_OS/lib, respectively.  If you remove 
the last two lines from your Makeinc file where these are being redefined, I 
believe the build will correctly find libnetcdf.a.
