[netCDF #JSM-727830]: NetCDF-4.3.3.1 building problem , 4 fails.

Hello,

From the test-suite.log you provided, I see the following:

----

FAIL: tst_h_scalar
==================

HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.8.4-patch1) thread 47823110266816:
  #000: ../../../src/H5T.c line 1595 in H5Tcreate(): unable to create type
    major: Datatype
    minor: Unable to initialize object
  #001: ../../../src/H5T.c line 2970 in H5T_create(): type class is not 
appropriate - use H5Tcopy()
    major: Datatype
    minor: Feature is unsupported

*** Create file with datasets & attributes that have scalar dataspaces...Sorry! 
Unexpected result, tst_h_scalar.c, line: 123

----

It appears that, in addition to HDF5.1.8.13, you have an older HDF5 install, 
version 1.8.4-patch1, that is being picked up at runtime.  You will need to 
uninstall this older version, or move it to a location off the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

I hope this helps,

-Ward
