It looks like the configure script couldn't discover a Fortran-77
compiler.  I suggest that you use the Fortran-90 compile as the
Fortran-77 compiler.

Please try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

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

    3. Ensure that the configure script uses the Fortran-90 compiler as
       the Fortran-77 compiler by appropriately setting the FC and F90
       environment variables. For example:

            export FC=/opt/fortran90/bin/f90
            export F90=/opt/fortran90/bin/f90

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

Please let me know if this helps.
