Cooper,

I'm not sure if we ever solved your problem, but the original error you got

>  FAIL: tst_h_vars
>  ================
>  
>  
>  *** Checking HDF5 variable functions.
>  *** Checking HDF5 boolen variables...ok.
>  *** Checking HDF5 variable with unlimited dimension...ok.
>  *** Checking HDF5 deflate filter setting and getting...Sorry! Unexpected 
> result, tst_h_vars.c, line: 230

is caused by having an old version of HDF5 (1.8.7 or earlier) installed,
which had a bug that's detected and causes a failure in recent versions of
netCDF.  Your "make check" should work fine with HDF5 versions 1.8.8 and later. 
If you have to rebuild HDF5 from source anyway, I​ ​would recommend just using 
the latest version 1.8.1​3​, as that's what​ ​we've done the most testing with.
