According to the file you sent, the following command was used to create the 
netCDF-Perl module:

cc  -shared -O2 -g -L/usr/local/lib NetCDF.o  -o 
blib/arch/auto/NetCDF/NetCDF.so        \
           -lnetcdf -L/usr/local/HDF5/lib       \
          

(The third line is a blank line).  Notice that the HDF5 library wasn't 
referenced (as "-lhdf5") even though its parent directory was.

I suspect that the autoconf(1) variable LD_NETCDF isn't correct.  What is the 
output from the following command?

    grep LD_NETCDF /data/dyc002/build/netcdf-perl-1.2.4/src/config.status

If the command doesn't indicate that LD_NETCDF is "-L/usr/local/lib -lnetcdf 
-L/usr/local/HDF5/lib -lhdf5" then that's the problem and you'll have to redo 
the steps I described earlier.  Note that in step 6 (the "make" step) the 
output file should be "make.log" instead of "configure.log".
