Yes, there was a fix for an AIX portability issue since 4.1.1,
although the error you are getting above doesn't look like where we
saw the problem (in libsrc4/nc4var.c).  We can't reproduce the problem
you reported.

Could you try the current snapshot release to see if that fixes the
problem?  It's at

  ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/snapshot/netcdf-4-daily.tar.gz

Please let us know if that doesn't compile.  If there are problems,
please send the information requested here:

Thanks!
