The last 4 lines above indicate that the configure script couldn't find
a C primitive type equivalent to the Fortran "byte" type.  This is very
bad and must be resolved in order to build the Fortran interface of the
netCDF package.

The reason for the problem can be found in the configure-script
error-message file "config.log":

> #################### config.log =

It appears that your Lahey Fortran-95 compiler (lf95) couldn't compile
a very simple test program.  This indicates a severe problem with your
Lahey Fortran-95 development environment.  I suggest that you consult
with your system administrator regarding the last error message above.
When that problem is fixed, then retry building the netCDF pacakge.
