That means you successfully built netcdf?  What was the cause of the problem
in your initial message (above)?

That's a bit weird.  You didn't change the compiler or other part of the OS
after installing libvolume_io.a, did you?  Did the library get damaged while
installing?  Check the file size against the size of ".libs/libvolume_io.a" in
the minc-1.2 source directory (the sizes may not be the same, but should only
differ by a few hundred bytes).
