Exactly.

Yes. These are some of the dependencies, but not all. Fortran include
directives are others (probably not too hard to handle), modules are yet
another one.

gfortran doesn't use libcpp, but it probably should. There's a PR about that,
and I tried to make the switch at some point (I was still a newcomer to
gfortran development at that time, so probably somewhere around 4.1/4.2), but
didn't succeed.
