[netCDF #FZX-680847]: "undefined reference to" problem

Hello,

It appears that when compiling ARWpost you are linking against the C library 
(libnetcdf) but not the Fortran interface (libnetcdff).  You will need to 
specify the fortran library when linking; this should resolve the 'undefined 
reference' errors you are seeing.  

I hope this helps, have a great day,

-Ward
