There's a problem building version 3.4 of the netCDF package with the
native compilers of SunOS 5.7.  I suggest that you obtain version
3.5-beta3 of the netCDF package and build it.  Besides fixing this
problem, it also has much better Fortran-90 support.

Version 3.5-beta3 is available at

    ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-3.5-beta3.tar.Z

I just built this version on my SunOS 5.7 system using the following
settings:

    CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/c89
    CPPFLAGS=
    CFLAGS=-g
    FC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/f90
    FFLAGS="-g -w"
    CXX=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC
