You can test that by pasting the gcc invocation directly to a command prompt. 
If gfec.c compiles that way, you're hypothesis is proved and make or libtool is 
doing something sttange; if not, the problem is in gcc or maybe something about 
gfec.c. It's perhaps significant that app-utils is about halfway through the 
compilation, so lots of files have compiled quite happily with that argument.
