[ncl-install] Installing opendap-enabled NCL

[Mary Haley]

Mateus,

It appears that compiling with V4.3.x of gfortran and linking
against V4.1.2 compiled libraries is not compatible, unfortunately.

I just checked the V4.3.2 and V4.1.2 versions of "libgfortran.a",
and only V4.1.2 has this symbol. That's why it is undefined
when you try to link against it using V4.3.2 of gfortran.

I guess I would stick with using the 4.3.2 version of everything, with
the "ncl" from V4.1.2.
