Oops, since netcdf-cxx4-4.2 requires linking with some version of the netCDF
C library, I was incorrectly assuming you had version 4.1.2 of netCDF C
installed
in /usr/local/lib and were building netcdf-cxx4 on top of that.

We should provide more explicit instructions for how to build
netcdf-cxx4, and some notes on its dependencies.
The netcdf-cxx4 library is merely a relatively thin layer depending on
the netcdf-4 C library, and the version numbers of these two libraries
are independent. The netcdf-cxx4 software makes no HDF5 calls
directly, and neither the netCDF-4 C library or the netCDF-4 C++
library depend on the HDF5 C++ layer in any way. It sufficient to
build HDF5 with the C++ and Fortran APIs disabled, which is the
default. Also, netCDF-4 doesn't support writing szip files due to
intellectual property issues, so unless you will be reading
szip-encoded data, it's also not necessary to enable szip when you
build HDF5. But I doubt if szip is relevant to this problem.
The tests I ran with hdf5-1.8.11, netcdf-4.3.0, and netcdf-cxx4-4.2
just used a default HDF5 build with nothing explicitly enabled. I
doubt if that's the source of the problem you're seeing, but you could
try it. Both the netCDF C library and HDF5 library were installed
shared, in case that's relevant. That's the default for both
libraries also.
Alternatively, if you send the config.log from the netcdf-cxx4 build,
as well as the make output, I can compare with what I got and see if
any differences, such as compiler warning messages, justify further
investigation.
If this response doesn't resolve the problem, I'll forward details of
the problem to Lynton Appel, the netcdf-cxx4 developer.
