In the above message, you wrote:

As mentioned in the INSTALL file, the file "configure.log" is the file
to which the standard output and standard error of the "configure" script
are redirected.  I don't need the file.  The "fortran/nfconfig.inc"
files gave me the information I needed.

The above indicates that the Fortran-calling-C convention is the same in
both 32-bit and 64-bit modes.

What C compiler did you use?  Does it claim to conform to the C
Standard?

Do you have access to a debugger?  If so, then would you please
execute your program in the debugger and stop in the function
"nc_put_var_float".  Look at the contents of the static variable
"coord_zero" in the file "libsrc/putget.c".  The array should contain
all zeros.  Does it?  If not, then your C compiler probably doesn't
conform to the C Standard.  You might, however, be able to work around
this by editing the file "libsrc/putget.c" and explicitly initializing
the variable "coord_zero" to all zeros.
