The above message contained the following:

The error that occurs:

    Making `test' in directory
    /usr_FZJ/jicg11/jicg1113/netcdf-3.5.0/src/libsrc
     
            /opt/ctl/bin/cc -c -O3 -I.  -DNDEBUG t_nc.c
    FORCE: No action was taken.

        echo "" && \
        make test || exit 1": Error code 1
    Make: "subdir=`echo libsrc/test | sed 's,/.*,,'`; \

has nothing to do with your previous problem regarding Fortran-90 and
support for primitive types. Rather, it appears that the make(1) utility
couldn't fork a child process in which to execute the "t_nc" test
utility of the "libsrc/" subdirectory. This problem is outside the scope
of the netCDF package. I suggest that you show the above to your system
administrator.

Once this problem is fixed, you should be able to re-execute the "make
test" from the top-level source directory.
