[netCDF #KLG-862966]: configure fails on Mac OS X

Hi Anna,

Thanks for letting us know you found the problem.

For future reference, you can now get netcdf-fortran-4.2 and the C libraries  
for netcdf-4.2.1.1 
for OSX through the MacPorts project

  http://www.macports.org/

Once you have the "port" program installed, it's as easy as

  sudo port install netcdf-fortran
