Your Fortran compiler is following a particular convention for
converting the names of routines that contain underscores.  The C
compiler needs to be told to use this convention in order to make its
functions available to Fortran.

Try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perform steps 3 through 5 near the end of the INSTALL file.

    3.  Ensure that the CPPFLAGS environment variable contains the
        string "-Df2cFortran".

    4.  Perform steps 6 through 9 near the end of the INSTALL file.

Please let me know if this helps.
