Thanks, I've finally added this to the "Other Builds of the netCDF
Package" that we reference from our FAQ:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/other-builds.html

I've also removed the extraneous "#define fpr" that was left in from
some debugging session for the next minor release.

Also, thanks for the report on the RPM upload.  I haven't quite figured
out where to put the information yet, but I haven't forgotten it.
