Your config.log shows pgf90 is not compiling a simple Fortran program:

  configure:6650: setting up Fortran 90
  configure:6669: checking for Fortran flag to compile .f90 files
  configure:6685: pgf90 -c   conftest.f90 >&5
  configure:6685: $? = 0
  configure: failed program was:
  |       program main
  | 
  |       end

Maybe there's something wrong with your pgf90 or maybe you need to
use pgf95 instead, by setting FC=pgf95 before running configure.

Another possibility is that you need to use some compiler flag (which
you would need to put into the FCFLAGS environment variable before
running the configure script).  Make sure you can compile the 3-line
Fortran program:

       program main
 
       end

with whatever PG Fortran compiler you are using, before trying to use
it to build netCDF.

Also in the previous response I suggested using F77=pgf90, but if
pgf90 doesn't work, you should use pgf77 or pgf95 instead.  If there
are any flags that need to be set for the F77 compiler, use the FFLAGS
environment variable for those.

It's actually Ed who will need access to the computer, but that's only
a last resort, in case we can't get things working via email.
