As long as you can see where it goes wrong, just ask again, citing the
relevant bit of the log. Finding this is a bit convoluted for the
FPICFLAGS issue because the failing test is just for whether the
variable was set earlier, which AFAICS should happen here:
## Step 2. GNU compilers.
if test "${GCC}" = yes; then
cpicflags="-fPIC"
shlib_ldflags="-shared"
fi
if test "${G77}" = yes; then
fpicflags="-fPIC"
fi
if test "${GXX}" = yes; then
cxxpicflags="-fPIC"
shlib_cxxldflags="-shared"
fi
Now, the natural guess is that ${G77} wasn't set earlier on, so look
for the place where it figures out the Fortran compiler.
