[Support #OLZ-189405]: nomenclature used for binary netcdf distributions...

There is a C API, a Fortran 77 API, a Fortran 90 API, and a C++ API.

The last three are optional.

So gfortran_c++ means I used gfortran for the F77 API, the F90 API is not 
build, and the c++ compiler was used for the C++ API.

Thanks,

Ed
