Because then it would trigger rebuilding NetCDF when this is rarely
necessary. This is the first time I've ever seen the error that Marc
reported -- usually the compiler detects when the NetCDF mod is
incompatible (this appears simply to have been corrupted). One thing we
can add is to have configure automatically delete this file if it's
'broken'. (configure already tests the validity of netcdf.mod for external
NetCDF installations, so this is an easy extension).
The upshot of this approach is that we can actually bypass the NetCDF
configure altogether if the existing NetCDF 'works' (some machines with
slow file systems -- especially the Crays I've compiled on -- take
painfully long to complete this step, IMO).
All the best,
Jason
