The last line above indicates that the environment variable CPP was set
to "//usr/local/pgi/linux86/bin/pgf90 -g -w", which is probably not what
you want because the pgf90 compiler is probably not a good C preprocessor.

The last line above indicates that the environment variable FC was set
to "//usr/local/pgi/linux86/bin/pgf90", which has an extra slash prefix.

I suggest 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 variables CPP, F90, and F90FLAGS are
        undefined.

    4.  Ensure that the following environment variables contain the
        indicated values:
    
            CPPFLAGS    -DpgiFortran
            FC          /usr/local/pgi/linux86/bin/pgf90
            FFLAGS      -g -w

        Note that the FC value has only one slash prefix.

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

Please let me know if this helps.
