Howdy Tetsuro!

The netCDF build actually contains two fortran libraries, one for F90, one for 
F77. If you don't want either, you can use --disable-fortran.

The Fortran libraries are known to work with ifort. Try the following:

CC=gcc FC=ifort CXX=g++ ./configure --prefix=/home/jesc/desktop/CMAQ 
--disable-dap --disable-netcdf-4

If this works, then take out the --disable-dap for the opendap client, and 
--disable-netcdf-4 for the netCDF-4 enhanced library features.

Please let me know if this works for you.

Thanks,

Ed
