Hi Hans,

> with a gfortran 4.7.2 compiler.
> 
> Could you give some advice to solve the problem?

First, you'll have trouble building netCDF 4.3.0 with a Fortran compiler, as it 
is 
only a C library.  You should be building it with gcc rather than gfortran, for 
example, according to these instructions:

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

Once you have the netCDF C library built and installed, you can get and build 
the
separate netCDF Fortran 4.2 libraries by following these instructions:
