For the configure script to find and use the user-defined Fortran
compiler, all that needs to be done is to set the environment variable FC
to the pathname (relative or absolute) of the compiler, e.g.

    FC=f90 export FC
    ./configure >configure.log 2>&1

The above assumes that "f90" can be found somewhere in your PATH;
otherwise, an absolute pathname for the compiler can be used.

I note, however, that some Cray systems use a "modules" technology: the
user has to "load" things like a development environment module (usually
in their shell initialization file) before the relevant compilers can
be found.  Perhaps this is your problem.  If so, then I can't be of much
help to you because I rarely use Crays.  I think your best bet would be
to consult your system administrator.
