>Agreed, who the hell still uses Fortran?

We are using Fortran (77 and 90), as well as C and C++.  In fact, all
of our clients work with Fortran code.  For us, its more like 99% than
0.1% of the users that care about Fortran.  

That said, it will be fine if there is good support for gfortran via
the ports system.
