You should install version 3.4 of the netCDF package (the most recent
release) rather than version 3.3.1.

I just built version 3.4 of the netCDF package on our HP-UX B.11.00 E
9000/715 system using the following settings:

    ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE        VALUE
    --------------------        -----
    CC                          /bin/c89
    CPPFLAGS                    -DNDEBUG -D_HPUX_SOURCE -w
    CFLAGS                      -O
    FC                          /opt/fortran/bin/fort77
    FFLAGS                      -O -w
    CXX                         /usr/bin/CC

Whatever you do, don't use "-O3" in the FFLAGS environment variable.  It
causes the "ncgen" test to fail.

I suggest that you 

    1.  Get release 3.4 of the netCDF package; and
    
    2.  Execute steps 2 through 9 near the end of the INSTALL file.

Please let me know if this helps.
