Hmmmm...

Could you do a "make distclean", and then run "configure 
--prefix=/tmp/netcdf/install/usr" and "make check install" and send me all the 
output of both?

Also send me the resulting config.log file.

Please leave the directory in existance when doing this (i.e. don't rm the 
/tmp/netcdf directory, just leave it there). It needs to exist before "make 
install" will work.

Thanks,

Ed
