[netCDF #RZV-171985]: Problems with x64 NetCDF

This rang a bell. I think this is fixed in github
pull request 904 (https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/904).
That was in response to github issue 899
(https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/899).
However, It looks like that error was fixed after 4.6.1 was
released. 

You might try applying this fix manually. It required small
changes to three files.
See https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/904/files
for the changes.

Alternatively, you can check out the current netcdf-c master branch
and build from that.
