Er, no, Gerald is correct.
The fortran compiler used needs to be the same as USE_GCC.  I know this
from experience with use of my ALTCOMPILER patch (pending approval).
The fact that fortran was hardcoded to gcc4.6 was the source of
breakage.  Gerald fixed something that I've had a pending patch for a
few months now.
