Hello Marko,

I think I see the issue.  The symptom of the problem is that arguments are 
being passed to libtool that it does not expect.  I suspect this to be the 
issue because, at the bottom of the make.log file you provided, I see the 
following line:

 > /bin/sh ../libtool  --tag=F77   --mode=link  -I../fortran   -I../fortran    
 > -o nf_test f03lib_f_interfaces.o test_get.o test_put.o nf_error.o nf_test.o 
 > test_read.o test_write.o util.o f03lib.o ../fortran/libnetcdff.la -lnetcdf

This is missing something; it should instead read along the lines of:

> /bin/sh ../libtool  --tag=F77   --mode=link [fortran compiler]  -I../fortran  
>  -I../fortran    -o nf_test f03lib_f_interfaces.o test_get.o test_put.o 
> nf_error.o nf_test.o test_read.o test_write.o util.o f03lib.o 
> ../fortran/libnetcdff.la -lnetcdf

I believe you will need to set the F77 environmental variable to `pgfortran`, 
e.g. 

    $ F77=pgfortran .//configure

This should result in the following command being run at compile time:

> /bin/sh ../libtool  --tag=F77   --mode=link pgfortran -I../fortran   
> -I../fortran    -o nf_test f03lib_f_interfaces.o test_get.o test_put.o 
> nf_error.o nf_test.o test_read.o test_write.o util.o f03lib.o 
> ../fortran/libnetcdff.la -lnetcdf

Give this a try and if the issue persists, please provide the updated config 
and make logs and I will see what we can sort out!

Thank you very much, have a terrific day,

-Ward
