Yes, I did all the tests and they all passed, even the FORTRAN ones.
However, I used the beta18 release of GNU Win32 and NetCDF-3.3.
Earlier on I had ported NetCDF-2.4 with GNU Win32 b17 and it was much,
much harder. Glenn did a wonderful job on the portability aspects of
NetCDF-3.3.

Which NetCDF version are you using? By all means use Netcdf 3.3 and
gnuwin32 beta 18.

         Arlindo.
