This is a different error than you were getting before, and occurring
earlier in the build process.  Previously, the "make check" had succeeded.
but the "make install" failed due to directory setting with --prefix option.
But now, the "make check" is failing due to an error finding a library needed
by the Intel compiler, libimf.so.  

If you have to run a script to set environment variables for the Intel compiler
before you use it, check that you have done that.  Also, if the Intel compiler
needs a specific runtime library in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable,
make sure it is set correctly.  The libimf.so file that the Intel compiler is
looking for must be in one of the library directories it knows about.  The
libimf.so library has nothing to do with netCDF, it's needed for the functions
declared in math.h.  If you can find libimf, make sure it's for the same
architecture that you're building for.  Here's more on the problem

If this doesn't help. please send the output of the configure script and "make 
check", as listed here:
