Yes.  Try to use standard compilers whenever possible.

I would try the following settings:

    CC=/opt/ansic/bin/c89
    CPPFLAGS='-DNDEBUG -D_HPUX_SOURCE -w'
    CFLAGS=-O
    FC=/opt/fortran/bin/fort77
    FFLAGS='-O -w'
    CXX=/usr/ncep/bin/c++

Follow steps 2 through 9 in the install file and try the above settings
for step 5.
