no GNU fortran in FBSD 7.0 base system?

I just upgraded to FBSD 7.0 and tried to compile a test fortran
program with the GCC fortran compiler:

% gcc tmp.f90
gcc: tmp.f90: Fortran compiler not installed on this system
%

% gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i386-undermydesk-freebsd
Configured with: FreeBSD/i386 system compiler
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.2.1 20070719  [FreeBSD]
%

Do I understand correctly that with this FBSD release GCC 4.2.1 does
not include the fortran compiler?

Or has I missed some flag/setting during buildworld stage?

Sure, I can install ports/lang/gcc42, but I thought the fortran compiler
would be available in the base system.

many thanks
anton
