Maybe a bit less hassle if the name gcc45 is kept for the set of  
symlinks ??
However, anyway, just for melina it seems to me adjusting to this  
might involve
much more work than what I suggested (if I understand correctly, it  
looks
just for whatever compilers in $PATH)
[ Under melina, "options_machine FC_name" or "options_machine LINKER"
currently yield just the plain "gfortran", and nothing in done in the  
info file
to force this. ]

But right _ so if this hassle can for the moment be avoided by changes
in just 2 pkgs, that might possibly be anyway warranted...
