You could have set FFLAGS to "-mismatch -g" because the "-g" option
appeared in the previous steve.  No matter, though.

I wonder if NAG f90 has an option to turn off warning messages about
unused external references.  Is so, then you should add it to FFLAGS
when you run the configure script.

Well, it looks like the "-mismatch" option transforms the errors into
warnings.  This is good.

To see if the netCDF-2 (not the new netCDF-3) Fortran API works, try the
following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Execute the command "make libsrc/all fortran/all".
        Redirect standard output and standard error to a file.
        If this step fails, then send me the file and stop.

    3.  Execute the command "make fortran/test".
        Redirect standard output and standard error to a file.
        If this step fails, then send me the file and stop.
