Rene,

I'm glad things concluded successfully.

I used the Intel Fortran and GNU c compiler gcc when
building the various NetCDF libraries, in particular
gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.3-7).

The Intel Fortran Compiler 8.1 does not provide a libPEPCF90.a anymore.
FFLAGS="-O -mp" is sufficient to have nf_test completed successfully.
Thank you very much for pointing this out.
