Well, but setting WITH_FORTRAN to build lang/gcc41 is the only
reason for the lang/gfortran port to exist.

Since this is just an option for lang/gcc41, I'd be glad to see
the lang/gfortran port being removed; users just would have to
build one of the recent lang/gcc ports with WITH_FORTRAN being
set.

Does that sound okay?
