I noticed in the information you sent that the C macro "f2cFortran"
wasn't defined.  On most Linux systems, this macro must be defined.

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 environment variable CPPFLAGS contains the
        string "-Df2cFortran".

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

Please let me know if this helps.
