Those look OK.

I don't know why you are setting any of the above environment variables.
But that won't cause the tests to fail, it's merely unnecessary.

We don't have an AIX platform on which to test netCDF 4.1.3, so 
I can't duplicate the error.  You didn't say what version of HDF5
you have installed, and it's possible that error could occur with
an old version of HDF5, before 1.8.4.  Otherwise, I can't see the
problem.

You might try building the latest netCDF C version 4.3.0 according
to these instructions:

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/build_default.html

and after that is installed, try building the netcdf-fortran-4.2
release that uses it, according to these instructions:
