Sorry.  Meant that this is the beta.

Hi.

I copied all the source (netcdf-beta.tar and hdf5-1.8.5) to another mac and 
upgraded Xcode and then installed the gfortran you specified and bingo.

Here's the script I used.  Note that this is a 64bit build since I turned off 
the -m32 option.  At least I think it defaults to 64-bit. 

#!/bin/bash

I'm going to try to reproduce this on my laptops where I was having the 
previous problems.

Hi John:

I notice you are using HDF-1.8.5.  A few days ago I emailed the list about 
that, and Ed replied that at the moment they do not work with HDF-1.8.5  (i 
can't find the email but look at the archives).  You need to use the version of 
HDF 1.8.4 that is on the netcdf ftp site.  I have been able to compile that 
with:

1.  the gcc and gfortran from fink

2. the gcc from apple and the gfortran from R at:  
http://r.research.att.com/tools/  - make certain you scroll down and get the 
gfortran for Snwo Leopard, not the one at the top of the page.

HTH,
