According to our experience on our Solaris systems, the f77(1) compiler
supports both the "byte" and "integer*2" types.

If you look in the file "fortran/nfconfig.inc" in your netCDF 3 source
directory, you should see the following lines:

    #define NF_INT1_T byte
    #define NF_INT2_T integer*2

These are the Fortran types that correspond to 1-byte and 2-byte
integers.
