message is one of undefined symbols when linking. I've already tried a variety
of different compiler flags (including the ones that are on netcdf supported
builds for darwin), but I always get the same error. Any suggestions?

Try it again, but don't set -Df2cFortran in CPPFLAGS or CFLAGS.

gfortran changed it's way of naming functions around version 4.2 of gcc, but if
you just leave this flag unset, the netcdf configure script will choose the
correct setting.

Please let me know if this doesn't help.
