[netCDF #ULN-920732]: issues with netCDF library

Hi Avirup,

This error and the following errors are the result of the compiler not finding 
the include file mpif.h, which
is part of the MPI installation for parallel I/O.  Did you build the netCDF 
library with the --enable-parallel
option?  Are you intending to use the parallel I/O capabilities of netCDF with 
an installed parallel file system?

If not, you should choose a different example for testing.  The 
simple_xy_par_wr.f90 example is intended
for testing the parallel I/O capabilities in the netCDF library, which uses the 
parallel I/O capabilities in the
underlying HDF5 library, assuming it was built with the parallel I/O option.
