One of the problems with finding that there is support for the MacOS X
platform for netCDF is that we use the name "Darwin" for the OS, which
is no familiar to most MacOS X users, but's it's the official name of
the operating system returned by the "uname -a" command, so that's what
we used.  

The errors you are getting don't look like they are netCDF related.
Here's a blog entry from someone who has succeeded in building WRF
on a Mac, so it may help to read some of his recent posts to see how 
he did it:

There are also some Mac-related postings in the WRF forums under 
installation:

I hope this helps ...
