OK then.  Let's try the compilers in "/usr/bin" only.  Try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Execute the command "make distclean".  Don't worry if it fails
        or even fails to execute.

    3.  Remove the file "config.cache" if it exists.

    4.  Set the following environment variables to the indicated values:

            CC=/usr/bin/cc
            CPPFLAGS="-DNDEBUG -Df2cFortran"
            CFLAGS=-O
            FC=/usr/bin/fort77
            FFLAGS="-O -Nx400 -w"
            CXX=/usr/bin/c++

        Note that the above syntax is appropriate for sh-derived shells
        and not for csh-derived ones.  Use whatever is appropriate for
        your shell.

    5.  Execute the configure script.  Redirect standard output and
        standard error to the file "configure.log".  If an error message
        occurs in the output, then stop and send me the file.

    6.  Execute the command "make".  Redirect standard output and
        standard error to the file "make.log".   If an error occurs,
        then stop and send me the file.

    7.  Execute the command "make test". Redirect standard output and
        standard error to the file "test.log".  If an error occurs,
        then stop and send me the file.

    8.  Execute the command "make install".  Redirect standard output
        and standard error to the file "install.log".  If an error
        occurs, then stop and send me the file.

    9.  Execute the command "make clean".
