Hi Peter,

It looks like you are trying to use ifort (the Intel Fortran compiler)
with /usr/bin/cc (the GNU compiler that comes with the XCode tools).
Evidently, setting the environment variable CC=icc before running the
configure script did not work, perhaps because you were using csh or
tcsh, which has a different syntax for setting environment variables.
Try using
   setenv CC icc
instead, if that's the case.  Another possibility is that your PATH
environment variable doesn't include the directory where icc is
found.  You could check that by making sure
   which icc
finds the icc compiler before you invoke the configure script.

We know the following environment variable settings work for MacOS X
10.5.5:

 CC=icc
 CFLAGS="-g -O2"
 CXX=icpc
 CXXFLAGS="-g -O2"
 FC=ifort
 FCFLAGS="-g -O2"
 F77=ifort
 FFLAGS="-g -O2"
 CPPFLAGS="-DpgiFortran"

For other settings that are known to work, see this Intel site:

or these reports of settings that worked:
