The warning messages about "clock skew" and "modification time" indicate
a problem with your computer.  You should fix this before continuing.

The above also does not contain any compilation commands, so I can't
see how the object files were created.

The above error message indicates that the linker couldn't resolve the
symbol "nf_open_".  This symbol should have been in the netCDF library
(libnetcdf.a) in the top-level source-directory.

The file "macros.make" indicated that the object files were created
using the C macro "f2cFortran":

    CPPFLAGS        = $(INCLUDES) $(DEFINES) -Df2cFortran

This is incorrect for the ifc(1) compiler.  The example at

    
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/other-builds.html#intel-ifc%203.5.1-beta13

shows that the relevant C macro is "pgiFortran".

Please try the following:

    1.  Fix the problem with the clock and file-times on your computer

    2.  Go to the top-level source directory of the netCDF package.

    3.  Perform steps 3 and 4 described at

    4.  Set environment variables according to

            
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/other-builds.html#intel-ifc%203.5.1-beta13

        and

    5.  Perform steps 6 through 9 described at
