Hi Bob,

I just succeeded in building a 64-bit version of the library for
IRIX64 6.5 using version 3.5.1, and it passes all our tests.  I used:

 CC=c89
 CFLAGS='-O -64'
 FC=f90
 FFLAGS='-O -64'
 CXX=CC
 CXXFLAGS='-O -64'

With a little trouble, I could package up the binaries and make them
available to you, but it might be easier for you to just download

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

unpack it, type 

  ./configure --prefix=WHERE_YOU_WANT_TO_INSTALL_IT
  make all test install

and you're done.

So let me know if you have problems or want the binaries we built.
