Hi Julia,

I think the problem with the above is the comma delimiter in CPPFLAGS.  On Unix
systems, you have to use a blank delimiter and quote the combination, as in:

  CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -DgFortran" LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib ./configure

I assume the same is needed when using cygwin.
