The above message contained the following:

> CPPFLAGS='-Df2cFortran'. No trouble so far.

That C macro is necessary for Linux systems that use the gcc(1) and
f77(1) compilers.  The file INSTALL contains an example of this.

Your c89(1) compiler accepts the "-O2" option.  Interesting.  It
shouldn't.

It's likely that a C macro must be defined in order for the c89(1)
compiler to see the Standard UNIX definitions.  I wonder if

    CPPFLAGS='-Df2cFortran -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500'

would work?

You could have also set the environment variable LIBS before executing
the configure(1) script.  For example

    LIBS=-lm ./configure ...

The file INSTALL has examples of this.

Great!

Thanks for the feedback.
