[netCDFPerl #EHX-776098]: netCDF Perl Build Issues

> MinGW/MSYS (www.mingw.org) using netCDF version 3.6.3, the initial 'make' 
> fails (see make_2009-12-18.log).  I was able to successfully install netCDF

Unfortunately, the netCDF-Perl package is designed for a POSIX environment, 
MinGW doesn't supply a complete POSIX environment, and we don't have a MinGW 
environment here -- so my help will be limited.

From your "make.log" file, it appears that the command to build the netCDF-Perl 
module didn't reference your installed netCDF library.  This is why all those 
netCDF symbols were unresolved.  Try adding a reference to the netCDF library 
to the makefile command that builds the module.
