The above indicates that the file "cfortran.h" doesn't know what
conventions to use when a Fortran routine calls a C method. It can
be told what conventions to use by defining a certain C macro. For
your environment, the macro should be "f2cFortran". The INSTALL file
contains examples of this.

Please try the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

    2.  Perorm steps 3 through 5 described near the end of the INSTALL
        file.

    3.  Ensure that the CPPFLAGS environment variable contains the
        string "-Df2cFortran",  e.g.

            export CPPFLAGS="-Df2cFortran"

        or

            setenv CPPFLAGS Df2cFortran

        depending on your user shell.

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

Please let me know if this works.
