[netCDF #IKM-527849]: netcdf parallel compilation: nc_test fail

Michael,

Rather than gfortran, you need to use mpif90 and mpif77, which are mpich 
wrappers for gfortran (or whatever Fortran compiler you're using).  So
try rerunning configure and then make check with

 F77=mpif77 FC=mpif90 F90=mpif90 CC=mpicc 

and if CPPFLAGS=-DgFortran doesn't work due to unsatisfied externals from
the netCDF C library (such as nc_open_ or nc_open__), use

 CPPFLAGS=-DpgiFortran

as instructed in step 4 of the building netcdf-Fortran instructions
under "Building with static libraries":

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/netcdf-fortran-install.html

instead.  Please let us know if this doesn't work.
