Sorry, the test failed because the test server was moved from port 8080 to port 
8081.  It should be OK to install,
but if you want a clean build, you'll either have to retrieve the modified 
tarball with the test server urls changed:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/netcdf/ftp/netcdf-4.2.0.tar.gz

or "make clean" and run the configure script again with 
"--disable-dap-remote-tests" option, then 
"make check install".
