Howdy Kevin!

How's the weather in Hawaii today? Presumably it's perfect, like every
other day!

Sorry, no binary for that AIX 64-bit. But it should build for you
pretty easily. All I had to do to get 64 bit was set environment variable 
OBJECT_MODE
to 64, and do the usual ./configure && make test

See the output here:

http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/builds/AIX_64_3_6_0.txt

Also you could take a look at:

http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/docs/netcdf-install/Building-on-64-Bit-Platforms.html

which has an alternative way to build 64-bit on AIX.

If this doesn't work, please send the full ASCII output of:

make distclean && ./configure && make test

Good luck!
