There is a package providing gfortran 6.1 on the page at https://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/tools/, and that should be used now with the El Capitan builds of R.
FWIW, I've had success using gfortran from Homebrew gcc; you just need to ensure that the correct Fortran libraries are passed along during compilation. E.g. I have: FLIBS = -L`gfortran -print-file-name=libgfortran.dylib | xargs dirname` in my `~/.R/Makevars`.
