Howdy Matthias!

OK, I have done as you suggested. Could you get the snapshot release and see if 
it still works for you:
ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/snapshot/netcdf-daily.tar.gz

If you could try it again, it would confirm that I didn't break the Open MPI 
functionality I just added. I still have not had the time to set up OpenMP, so 
I cannot test this patch myself.

Thanks,

Ed
