It looks like configure cannot find a fortran compiler - have you specified the 
location f your fortran compiler with the FC environmental variable? Also, if 
you want to use -fPIC, make sure to use the FCFLAGS variable to set that, as 
configure won't pickup F90FLAGS. For a listing of variables that can be used, 
check out:

Cheers!
