The above message contained the following:

Offhand, I'd say that the above is impossible, so an assumption must be
wrong.

What does a "file /home/bian/bin/netcdf-3.5.0/lib/libnetcdf.a" output?

If you extract a file from the netCDF library, then what does a file(1)
command on the extracted object-module output?
