Greetings Birgit,

I think that what you are seeing is that netCDF cannot find your HDF5 library. 
Try specifying the path to the HDF5 and zlib libraries using the CPPFLAGS and 
LDFLAGS variables when you run configure, like so (note that we no longer use 
the --with-zlib, or other --with-* flags with configure - it's all done through 
the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS):

CPPFLAGS="-I/home/learjet/doel_bi/local/netcdfWithHdf5/zlib-1.2.5/include 
-I/home/learjet/doel_bi/local/netcdfWithHdf5/hdf5-1.8.8/include" 
LDFLAGS="-L/home/learjet/doel_bi/local/netcdfWithHdf5/zlib-1.2.5/lib 
-L/home/learjet/doel_bi/local/netcdfWithHdf5/hdf5-1.8.8/lib" ./configure 
--prefix=/home/learjet/doel_bi/local/netcdfWithHdf5/netcdf-4.1.3 
--enable-netcdf4  --enable-large-file-tests

Also, be sure to run

make disclean

before rerunning configure.

Please let me know if this work for you!

Cheers,

Sean
