I am less familiar with Fortran than C, but I will be as much help as I can.  I 
would refer you to these links discussing the same/similar issue:

It would appear you may need to ensure you are using static netcdf libraries, 
and that the Fortran units calling netCDF function each have a 'use netcdf' 
statement in the declarations.

Hopefully the answer to your question is contained in one of the previous 
discussions of this issue; if not, please let me know.
