I found the problem. /usr/local/lib had old copies of libgfortran* and libquadmath* from 2015, and removing these allowed things to proceed. The current copies are in /usr/local/gfortran/lib.

That directory contains a lot of old junk; I'll probably find more needs to go too.

I don't have LDFLAGS set.  I'm not certain I'm running the right
compilers (I might have old ones that have precedence on the path).  Are
these the versions I should be seeing?

$ clang --version

If those are the right versions, any other suggestions on how to fix the
configure problem?
