Well, the HDF-5 shared-library looks OK (i.e., 64-bit).

Can't tell the bit-size for the netCDF library, but the netCDF-Perl module 
wouldn't have built if the objects in the unshared library were 32-bit.

And your perl(1) utility is 64-bit. Curiouser and curiouser.

Try adding "/usr/local/lib" to the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH and 
re-execute the command "make test".
