Strange problem.  I suspect it has something to do with GNU make(1) but,
since we don't have access to a Linux system, it might take some time to
track the problem down.

What happens if you do the following in the top-level source directory?

    make ncgen/all

If the above works, then you can try to build and install the netCDF by
manually executing all the following commands (in order):

    make nctest/all

    make xdr/test
    make libsrc/test
    make nctest/test
    make fortran/test
    make ncdump/test
    make ncgen/test

    make libsrc/install
    make fortran/install
    make ncdump/install
    make ncgen/install

    make xdr/clean
    make libsrc/clean
    make nctest/clean
    make fortran/clean
    make ncdump/clean
    make ncgen/clean

Please let me know if this helps.
