Fix Scilab-2.5's config script and send the patch to its author.
Alternately, send-pr an update to the math/Scilab port.

NO. I will not apply this link. BSD has always had a "f77" command. It
has not always had a "g77" command. The G77 developers should have
installed a "f77" compatability link. It is their fault this misspelling
is perpitrating forward. All the world is not Gfoo.
