Please send your attempted makefile and we'll see if we can get it working.

  I am not sure if we can organize the include files as Fortran compiler 
include files easily. We've always used the preprocessor approach. The Intel 
compiler docs indicate the procedure for finding the Fortran compiler include 
files 
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/documentation/fortran-compiler-oneapi-dev-guide-and-reference/top/program-structure/use-include-files.html
 is the same as for the preprocessor include files so I don't understand how 
the using the Fortran compiler include file approach would make the makefiles 
any simpler for users?
