Russ,

well, I found my problem: Absoft f77 makes code "case insensitive" by 
folding all procedure names to lower case; the library as compiled expects 
upper case. Also, I'm able to link by compiling as

f77 -w test.f libnetcdf.a

but not as

f77 -w -lnetcdf test.f

I discovered this by examining the output as Fink built the library from 
source. I don't know how to find out what environment variables the Fink 
installer sets, but there is now a second netcdf package in the "unstable" 
section of Fink called netcdf-absoft, and it does the job.

thanks for your help--I'd never have discovered the nm command otherwise,
neil
