Hi Lou,
First of all, it looks like your NCARG_ROOT environment variable isn't
set, or else it isn't set correctly. The above error message
indicates that it is either being set to /usr/local/ncarg (which is
not where NCL seems to reside on your system), or it is trying to
default to this path. Please double-check this and set NCARG_ROOT
correctly.
Secondly, I noticed your Fortran routine name has an underscore in it.
There's an oddity on the Linux system GNU compiler (and possibly the
Portland compiler) that may be causing the name of your Fortran
routine name to be mangled. Try removing the underscore from the
routine name (and make sure you do this from the NCL script as well).
Lastly, what version of NCL are you running? It's possible that if you
have an old version, it doesn't have shared object capability built
in.

If none of the above help, then I will need to see your compile lines
in order to know what the problem might be. Did you by any chance try
WRAPIT? This is a shell script written by Mark Stevens that detects
what kind of system you are on, and then it builds the shared object
for you. All you need to do is give it the Fortran file with the "C
NCLFORTSTART" "C NCLEND" statements in it.
For documentation on WRAPIT, you can look at the comments in the
file. It should reside in $NCARG_ROOT/bin if you have a reasonably
recent version of NCL.
