Unfortunately, no standard exists for the naming of a Fortran file that
is included by the preprocessor. Apparently, the extension ".inc" causes
problems on your system.

Try changing the name of the file from "udunits.inc" to "udunits.F".
You will also have to change the name in the following files:

    /lib/udunits.3fi
    /lib/Makefile.in
    configure.in
    RELEASE_NOTES

Then, rebuild and reinstall the UDUNITS package.

Then, change the name from "udunits.inc" to "udunits.F" in your program
and recompile it.
