Sorry, but I can't duplicate the problem.  Here's the output I get from
running "make clean all test" in the src/ncdump directory on a SunOS
4.1.4 SPARCstation (after first building and testing the distribution
from the netCDF 3.3.1 sources):

 % uname -a
 SunOS groucho 4.1.4 7 sun4
 % make clean all test
 rm -f *.o *.a *.so *.sl *.i *.Z core ncdump test0.nc test1.nc test1.cdl 
test2.cdl
 acc -c -O -I../libsrc  -DNDEBUG ncdump.c
 acc -c -O -I../libsrc  -DNDEBUG vardata.c
 acc -c -O -I../libsrc  -DNDEBUG dumplib.c
 acc -o ncdump -O  ncdump.o vardata.o dumplib.o -L../libsrc -lnetcdf  
 ../ncgen/ncgen -o test0.nc -n test0.cdl
 ./ncdump test0.nc > test1.cdl
 ../ncgen/ncgen -o test1.nc -n test1.cdl
 ./ncdump -n test0 test1.nc > test2.cdl
 *** ncdump test successful ***
 % ls -l test0.nc
 -rw-rw-r--  1 russ         1192 Jul 21 11:12 test0.nc

The "ncgen" program creates test0.nc from test0.cdl.  It's possible the
test0.cdl file has become corrupted from what was in the tar file.
Here's its expected size and checksum:

 % ls -l test0.cdl
 -rw-rw-r--  1 russ          896 Oct  8  1996 test0.cdl
 % sum test0.cdl
 38091     1

If you can duplicate the problem from the ncdump directory by just
running

 ../ncgen/ncgen -b test0.cdl

please send me a copy of your "test0.cdl" file, so I can diagnose the
bug.  

Thanks!
