The netCDF Fortran software doesn't install any file named types_mod.mod.

The only public module files it installs are "netcdf.mod" and "typesizes.mod",
which are installed in the include/ subdirectory of the install directory
specified with the --prefix option to configure.

I'm not sure where the "types_mod.mod" module is produced, but I don't
think it's from netCDF.
