problem compiling netcdf-3.6.2 with gcc-4.3.2

[Sergei Steshenko]

Hello All,

well, the problem is not an octave one, but folks here may already know the
solution.

While trying to compile all octave dependencies with gcc-4.3.2 I've
encountered this problem during compilation of netcdf-3.6.2:

   241  libtool: compile:  /home/sergei/AFSWD/install/gcc-4.3.2/bin/g++

.

The same netcdf-3.6.2 compiles just fine with gcc-4.2.4.

Is anybody aware of a quick fix ?

It's not critical for me, I'm going to revert to gcc-4.2.4 meanwhile.

Thanks,
  Sergei.
