Hi, Jim

I applied your patch. Please let me know if it tests OK on your systems.

I also checked netCDF header file netcdf.inc and it appears that these
parameters (nf_fill_uint, nf_fill_int64, and nf_fill_uint64) are not supported. https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-fortran/blob/master/fortran/netcdf4.inc#L34

Also, F77 standard does not support integer*8 either. See
http://www.fortran.com/fortran/F77_std/rjcnf-4.html#sh-4.1
I guess for a strict F77 program, netCDF approach is safer.

We can make PnetCDF either follow netCDF or keep it as is.
Let me know what you think.
