Crystal,

The config.log output you sent has no significant errors in it that I
can see.  Note that it is supposed to have some errors, as it is a
log of attempts by the configure script to see if some things work.
So, for example, the error in config.log

>                  real r(J,N)
>                         ^

>    Local variable "J" must be a dummy argument or in common to be used in a 
> bounds specification expression.

is merely determining whether the sgif90 compiler handles .F files (it
does not), to determine how to invoke the preprocessor on .F files.

As to why the "make test" gets stopped in the middle:

   ...

I have no idea, but this doesn't look like a netCDF-related problem.
It looks more like some quota was exceeded (e.g. how much CPU time or
I/O is available to the job) and the program exceeded this quota so
was terminated.
