[ncl-install] Building NCL 6.0 on AIX 5.3 Power6 cluster

[Mary Haley]

We actually do have AIX binaries for NCL V6.0.0 (not V6.1.0-beta).

We only have opendap-enabled binaries.

www.earthsystemgrid.org -> NCL: NCAR Command Language -> NCL Version 6.0.0 -> NCL Version 6.0.0 precompiled binaries, OPeNDAP-enabled
