Yes, netCDF version 3.4 does. We set the following environment variables before running the configure script and everything worked: CC='/bin/cc -n32' # MIPSpro Compilers: Version 7.2.1.1m CFLAGS=-g FC='/bin/f90 -n32' # MIPSpro Compilers: Version 7.2.1.1m FFLAGS=-g CXX='/bin/CC -n32' # MIPSpro Compilers: Version 7.2.1.1m Here's the reason we used f90 instead of f77: IRIX f90 Note: On IRIX 6.x platforms with version 7 compilers, the f90 compiler accepts 'integer*1', while f77 accepts both 'integer*1' and 'byte'. Using FC=f90 forces the configure script to select 'integer*1'. The resulting *.inc files and test configurations will then work with either compiler.
