But the contents of the file may not be the same for all implementations.
For anyone not using GNU autoconf for their configuration (e.g. using cmake
or customizable makefiles), can an equivalent to the autoconf FC_FUNC_ macro
be provided?  Or is some completely different mechanism used?  For example,
one could implement this kind of thing by declaring the mangled Fortran
names (perhaps all the different mangled names used by different Fortran
compilers) as aliases of the C functions, but that requires
compiler-dependent syntax.

'protos' is the wrong name.  That isn't what the file contains.  I think
something more descriptive would be better.  Perhaps one of:
  iMeshP_fc_func.h
  iMeshP_fortran_mangle.h
  iMeshP_fortran_macro.h
  iMeshP_fortran_nm.h
  iMeshP_F_mangle.h
  iMeshP_F_macro.h
