you could unzip yourself and install from from the unzipped folder
(i.e. it's no requirement to install from a .tar.gz archive), BUT most
probably, you'll also need a full configure&make environment with all
accompanying tools (like sh, sed, grep, etc.) so simply unzipping is
not enough -
And apart from that, you'll need the netcdf library, on which octcdf
depends, preferably compiled with the same compiler as octave was
compiled.

(Besides, LD_LIBRARY_PATH has no effect on windows AFAIK, all
libraries and executables must be in PATH to be found by the system)
