[netCDF #VDO-977800]: NetCDF configure not seeing zlib in hdf5

Hello,

Thank you for providing the config.log file generated when you ran configure.  
My guess is that there are either multiple libhdf5's present on the system, or 
that the configuration paths aren't set so that the configure script can find 
the libhdf5 and libhdf5_hl libraries you have compiled and installed. I am 
seeing the environmental variable 'H5DIR' referenced in the config.log file, 
but it does not appear to be set.  Can you confirm that it is in fact set, when 
you run configure?  Can you provide the libhdf5.settings file generated when 
you installed libhdf5?

Thanks!
