This is a known problem.  You must define the C macro "f2cFortran" in
the CPPFLAGS environment variable before executing the configure script
when building the UDUNITS package on a Linux system.

Please do the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

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

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

            export CPPFLAGS=-Df2cFortran

        or

            setenv CPPFLAGS -Df2cFortran

        depending on your user shell.  There are examples of this for
        Linux systems in the file INSTALL.

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

Please let me know if this helps.
