[netCDF #YQG-383700]: Fortran name mangling does not agree with F90 mangling

Gfortran changed the way that it mangles names. I don't remember the version.

This is controlled by setting a pre-processor flag. For gfortran, try 
-Dgfortran.

Set this in CPPFLAGS, then reconfigure and rebuild netcdf. Do a make check to 
see if the fortran APIs are working.

Please let me know if this doesn't help.

Thanks,

Ed
