This is caused from the same problem as the previous one your asked
about.  It appears that the configure script run on your system did not
create the makefile for this test routine correctly.  The fix is the
same as in the other case: add the search of the nsl library so that
the xdr routines can be found.

If you rerun configure capturing the output to a file and send it to us,
we can get to the bottom of why it is not creating the makefiles correctly.
I suspect that it must be something in your environment since we regularly
build the netCDF on our Solaris 2.4/5 platforms.
