The *.m4 files in the fortran/ subdirectory specify the FORTRAN/C
calling conventions for their respective platforms.  There is no
linux.m4 file because we don't know what the LINUX calling conventions
are.

If you need the FORTRAN netCDF interface, then you could try copying an
existing operating-system's .m4 file to linux.m4 and see what happens,
e.g.

    $ cd fortran/
    $ make clean
    ...
    $ cp sunos4.m4 linux.m4
    $ make all test
    ...
    $ make clean
    $ cp ultrix.m4 linux.m4
    $ make all test

Alternatively, if you don't need the FORTRAN netCDF interface, then you
can skip it.  See the following URL for details:
