Thomas,

Thanks for sending the settings you got to work.  We'll add those to our web
page
on "other platforms" that we don't have the compilers to test.

Right, the reason you needed -lnetcdff and -lnetcdf is because you specified
--enable-separate-fortran to the configure script, which caused it to make a
separate Fortran library.  I assume if you built again without that, the
Fortran API would be merged into the C library, and you would only have to
specify -lnetcdf.

The reason for having --enable-separate-fortran is to permit supporting more
than one Fortran compiler on the same platform, by installing the separate
Fortran libraries in different directories.
