[netCDF #AZX-585461]: fortran configure problems

Hi Karen,

I think I've corrected this as you suggest, but please let us know if
this is not what you intended (the second step 3 in this document):

I don't think you're overlooking anything.  This looks like a bug, due
to inadequate testing of the --enable-parallel-tests and separate
Fortran distribution.  I've entered it into our Jira issue-tracking
system, where you can monitor it or add comments on the issue:

  https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/jira/browse/NCFORTRAN-21

Did you build the C library according to these instructions, with
--enable-parallel, and also use --enable-parallel when you build the
HDF5 library?

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/build_parallel.html

If you did that, I don't know what's wrong.  We'll defintiely look
into this when we get to that Jira issue ...
