Could you first try "make check" in the netcdf directory? The make check step 
will run a bunch of tests. Search the output for the tests in the nf_test 
directory, in particular tests like f90tst_vars.f90.

If these tests are run, and pass, then the netCDF f90 API was built correctly. 
If not, then there is a problem with your netcdf build.

Thanks,

Ed
