In gcc 4.x, the fortran compiler is called gfortran, not g77 or f77. So
maybe it will work to edit the makefile and change the name of the compiler.
However, if the code is really Fortran77 and incompatible with
Fortran95,
you may want to install the older compiler set:
  yum install compat-gcc-34-g77
will install gcc 3.4 with g77 as fortran compiler.
(this is for FC6, for FC5, the package is compat-gcc-32-g77 which of
course is gcc 3.2)
