Hello Colin,

Both Russ and I have tried compiling 4.1.3 on our OSX workstations and also 
fail to get netcdf to build.  Given the age of the release, there's 
unfortunately nothing to be done for modern platforms on our end.  You may want 
to try the latest release, 4.3.2.  Note that, starting with netcdf 4.2, the 
fortran and C++ functionality has been split out from the main library and must 
be installed separately.  You can download the source code from these libraries 
at the following pages:

http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/releases
http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-fortran/releases
http://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-cxx4/releases

I hope this helps, I'm sorry we can't provide a solution for building 4.1.3 on 
a modern OSX machine.
