Yes, I can.  The configure script fails to find out how to compile
Fortran code that should be included in shared libraries.  Apparently,

* trying to use xmkmf for CPICFLAGS fails
* this is not GNU f77 (g77), and indeed it is f90
* and hence also the platform overrides fail.

Assuming you need flags FOO for doing the job, you can do

	FPICFLAGS=FOO /path/to/configure; make

to solve the problem.

And of course, please let me know what the solution is.

Question: why f90 and not f77?
