Hi Greg, 
unfortunately did I try to run configure in a directory fresh unpacked from 
the tarball. 
With all the options to configure
  ./configure --with-hdf=/usr/local/hdf/
on the first try it tells me 
checking for HDF components ...
checking for dfsd.h... no
checking for hdf/dfsd.h... no
checking for Hopen in -ldf... yes
checking if HDF package is complete... no -- some components failed test

and fails ...

I had similar problems doing the install on a linux box (SuSE 7.2/7.3 
professionel). Actually there does not seem to be a difference between 
--with-hdf=yes 
or 
--with-hdf=/usr/local/hdf/

Did nobody else ever encounter the problem?
