[ncl-install] NCL install with NetCDF-4 undeclared variable NC_NETCDF4

[Mary Haley]

Hi Marcin,

If you want classic NetCDF 4 support, then you will need 
to build NetCDF 4.x with --enable-netcdf set, and make 
sure --disable-netcdf-4 is not set.
Everything else you're doing is correct.

You may also want to look at #6 at:

With the newer versions of HDF, the "hdf/netcdf.h" include 
file doesn't get installed, so you need to remove this 
reference from the NCL code.
