Fortran-77 doesn't have a standard "include" mechanism.  The file "udunits.inc"
is, therefore, designed to be included by the C preprocessor and not by any
Fortran compiler.  The file "udunits.f" contains the following

        include '/usr/local/unidata/include/udunits.inc'

Change this to

#include "/usr/local/unidata/include/udunits.inc"

and try again.

Steve Emmerson
