The 2.0.0rc1 tarball has some issues with FCFLAGS missing from (at least)
some pthreads-related configure probes.
See my devel list posts related to the 1.10.2 release candidate for more
information.

The 1.10.2rc1 tarball also showed at least one link command was missing
FCFLAGS, but I cannot determine if that is the case in 2.0.0rc1 since the
configure failure has become fatal.
