Hi John,

If this is netCDF-2.3.2 from June 1993, the fix is to use the current
version, which has been tested on the 64-bit SGI platform under IRIX 5.3
and IRIX 6.2.  NetCDF version 2.4.3 is available as

    ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf.tar.Z

Alternatively, you could just manually edit the fortran/Makefile created
by the configure script to define FC as "f90 -64" and then try "make
clean all test" again in the fortran/ directory.
