error in pnetcdf.inc

[Wei-keng Liao]

Hi, Jim

Sorry for replying your email this late.

I honestly do not have a good solution for this.
If I removed the trailing underscore and 8, then the F77 program,
pnf_test.f, is compiled fine with pg77 but failed with gfortran.

Adding "-fno-range-check" flag to gfortran command line passed
the compilation, but I don't think I should enforce this option for gfortran.

On the other hand, pgf77 does not appear to understand the trailing suffix "_8".

I am open to any suggestion.
