If the above warning message can be removed, then I can more quickly
diagnose the problem.

The above errors should not have occurred and indicate a severe problem
with your compiler (and not the netCDF package).  I suggest you show
them to your system administrator or vendor.

If you correspond further with me, then please send me the file
"configure.log", which is described at
