I realize other people have replied about how to get F2C, but remember
if you are simply evaluating and don't care about the programs that use
fortran you can always compile without it.  All you need to do is change
your $KHOROS_HOME/repos/config/imake_conf/{machine}.cf file.

   Q26. How do I compile the Khoros system without FORTRAN?

   A26. Look for the line in your configuration (*.cf) file that says,
        #define HasFortran YES
        Change it to:
        #define HasFortran NO

        For those compiling on a SUN architecture, note that in the sun.cf 
	file for Khoros 1.0 Patch 5, there is an INCORRECT comment:
        /*
         * does your machine have fortran? If not comment the next
         * two lines
         */
	The comment lies.  Do not comment out the lines, simply make
	sure that HasFortran is set to 'NO' (not 'no' or 'No').
