Dave,
   In this case, I don't think the approach of making a compatibility 
package is appropriate or wise. The current gcc4 in unstable, based
on the gcc snapshots, is neither fish nor fowl. It has a libgfortran
which has alway forked away from the ABI used in libgfortran from gcc
4.1.x. So to claim it is really a libgfortran.1.dylib is incorrect.
  It would be more intellectually honest just to admit we made a 
mistake in using a pre-release gcc and dig our way out of it with
by forcing all of the packages that use gfortran from gcc4 in 10.4
unstable to be rebuilt when gcc4 is upgraded to the actual gcc 4.2
release. 
                 Jack
