Yes, it's possible that the gcc installation is not correctly
installed.

Please try the netcdf-3.5.1-beta10 release from

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

When running the "configure" script, If you still get 

  checking C compiler "/usr/bin/gcc"... failed to compile test program

then please follow the instructions on Reporting Problems at the end of the
INSTALL instructions:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/INSTALL.html#ReportingProblems

In particular, check the associated error message in the "config.log"
file that logs output of all the tests run by configure to see why gcc
failed, or just send the "config.log" file to
"address@hidden" and we will determine why the configure
script thinks gcc doesn't work.
