[netCDF #RND-134504]: Support for fortran compiler flags in netcdf

> My report is about building netcdf in 64bit mode with a couple of
> flags.  This seems to be troublesome, a lot of environment variables
> must be set before launching configure, not all of them being obvious:
> 
> For Fortran, there're F90FLAGS, FFLAGS, FCFLAGS, and FCFLAGS_f90 Some
> of them are recognised by configure, but are not passed to to the final
> Makefile. It seems that F90FLAGS/FFLAGS is ignored, still a message is
> printed out by configure that confirms the detection of these
> variables.
> 
> I think that this is very confusing.  On Solaris, it might be helpful
> to tell the user to pass -fast to the compiler before any other 64bit
> options like -xarch=v9.  Otherwise (at least with studio11) the
> compiler will still generate 32 bit code which leads to interesting
> error messages during the compilation.

Thanks for pointing this out. I will look into this and get back to you...
