Hi Jan,

The "hdf/netcdf.h" reference has been removed since V5.0.0 was released,
because it was causing a conflict between NetCDF and HDF. I'm not sure
how certain external variables are now getting defined, however, and
that is what I'm tracking down.

The other way to fix this is to include -lgfortran on the compile line.
NCL is C-based, and that's why the C compiler is being used to do
the linking.

I'll include this in our trouble-shooting notes.
