Hi John,

The error you encountered is in compiling the netCDF C++ interface.  This may 
be caused by a problem with your xlC installation.  One easy way to get around 
this is to specify omitting the C++ interface from the build.  If you just use 
the C or Fortran interfaces or other scripting interfaces based on them, you 
don't really need the C++ interface.  To specify you don't want the C++ 
interface, just set the environment variable CXX to the empty string "" before 
running the configure script (with a new source tree or after running "make 
clean").

Otherwise, if you intend to develop using the C++ interface or have other 
applications that use it, I think you'll have to update xlC or its runtime 
libraries to handle standard C++ programs.
