Building Netcdf and Pnetcdf

[Ed Hartnett]

You probably just want to install netCDF without parallel-netcdf. (That is,
without --enable-pnetcdf.)

The --enable-pnetcdf option allows netCDF to use parallel-netcdf under to
hood for parallel I/O on classic format netCDF files.

If you do build with pnetcdf, do not use --enable-netcdf-4 with pnetcdf.
That won't work. ;-)
