I can't duplicate the problem. I built netCDF-3.4 using the
environment variable settings you are using on a very similar
platform. Output from "uname -a" is:
SunOS zero.unidata.ucar.edu 5.6 Generic_105181-12 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-2
The version of f90 we have installed (output from "f90 -V") is:
f90: WorkShop Compilers 4.2 01 Dec 1997 FORTRAN 90 1.2 patch 104366-04
The "make all" and "make test" worked fine, with no errors. I also
tested f90 on a SunOS 5.7 platform with the same settings, and it
worked also.
All I can suggest is to make sure your Fortran 90 compiler patch level
is up to date, and try running the tests on a local disk, in case there
is an NFS configuration problem that this test is revealing. Also
check the console for any I/O errors ...
