Sounds like you need to install netCDF-4, the latest netCDF release, and make
sure you are linking to it.

If you look where you have installed netCDF there is a VERSION file, which
tells what version you have. If it is anything other than "4.0" you need to
upgrade. Get netCDF-4.0:
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-4.0.tar.gz

and follow the instructions here:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/netcdf-install/Quick-Instructions.html#Quick-Instructions

Once you have built, checked, and installed netcdf-4, try building your navy
code again, making sure that the -I and -L options point to the locations where
you installed netCDF-4.

Let me know if this doesn't work for you.
