[ncl-install] Configure and/or ymake changing Include paths

The problem is that the string "x86_64" is a system predefined macro that
is basically a flag (0 or 1) as to whether you are on a 64-bit system. When
the Makefile gets generated, the preprocessor is converting this to a 1
because you are on a 64-bit system. By renaming it to "x86.64", which is
NOT a predefined macro, then, you get around this problem.

I will see if somebody can find a work-around to the other issue you
mentioned.

At least temporarily, you can choose to install NCL to whatever parent
directory you want (that doesn't have "x86_64" in the name), and then
simply move the "bin", "lib", and "include" directories
to  /hpc/apps/SLES/3.0/1/ncl_ncarg/6.3.0 afterwards.
