[gdal-dev] netcdf option build error

[William Kyngesburye]

I looked thru my notes on HDF4 to see if there was anything else.  Are  
you compiling on Intel OSX?  There is a small endian issue in HDF4 for  
Intel OSX where it will define the constants as bigendian, but only  
for 32bit OSX.  In hconv.h, line 66, none of the tested machine values  
match OSX Intel (__i386 or __i386__), so OSX Intel gets caught as  
bigendian.

I don't know if this is enough to affect the definition of  
MAX_VAR_DIMS or not.  I do see that MAX_VAR_DIMS is a backward- 
compatibility define for Netcdf v2 - netcdf.h lines 912+.  The modern  
version is NC_MAX_VAR_DIMS.  Did you use --disable-v2 when configuring  
netcdf?
