You must use the "-cpp" option with the IRIX64 Fortran-90 compiler in
order to obtain correct macro-preprocessing of the Fortran-90 test file.
The top-level file "INSTALL.html" contains examples.

I suggest the following:

    1.  Go to the top-level source directory.

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

    3.  Ensure that the environment variable FFLAGS contains the string
        "-cpp".

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