I just tried compiling netCDF 3.5 on a Sun Ultra-2 with the compiler
options

  CFLAGS="-xtarget=ultra2 -xarch=v9"
  FFLAGS="-xtarget=ultra2 -xarch=v9"
  CXXFLAGS="-xtarget=ultra2 -xarch=v9"

on a SunOS 5.7 system with the WorkShop 5.0 compilers and everything
worked fine.  I don't think this is a difference between you using
"-xarch=v9a" and my using "-xarch=v9", but probably something more
basic, such as whether the appropriate C++ libraries are installed on
your system.  The errors you see indicate some stream I/O methods are
missing, as well as operator new[](unsigned long):

Are you able to compile and run other C++ programs with
"-xtarget=ultra2 -xarch=v9a" that use simple stream I/O?  For example

 #include <iostream>
 int main() {
     cout << "Hello\n";
     return 0;
 }

If not, then you'll need to get that fixed before trying to build the
netCDF C++ interface.  Alternatively, if you don't need the C++
interface, you could build without it by specifying no C++ compiler
with CXX="" before running the configure script.
