Your g77 installation is broken. You can look in config.log to see what the exact error message was when it tried to invoke g77. However, if you've messed up g77 installation this badly, I'm guessing you've probably hosed your whole system beyond your ability to repair it. You'd be much better off installing Debian GNU/Linux, in which you can just type 'apt-get install mpb' and it will install everything for you. Installing software from source requires a bit more understanding of Unix.
