I'm not sure, this is the right config.log file. the stdout of the configure run does not fit to it. Essentially there is not netcdf-test performed in the config.log

I updated config.log file..
please recheck the error.

here is the interesting part

although your netcdf installation may be under /usr/local/netcdf/363_pgi128/ it seems to be build somewhere under /etc/.setup. do you build software as root?

I cannot recommend using such an old netcdf installation. if you insist to do so, use a dynamic version. AFAIK __builtin_alloca should have something to do with gcc, which brings to my last point: you use gcc-4.4.7. it was releases 4.5 years ago, so please update or use a different vendor with a newer release. It's not possible to maintain CDO wrt. such old environments. same is true for netcdf-3.6.3 from June 2008.

if updating is not possible, then conda might a way to go: see Anaconda.
