But the point is the SAGE_FORTRAN variable is supposed to be able to
point to an arbitrary Fortran compiler - irrespective of the operating
system. It's quite feasible someone will want to use a Fortran that is
not the first gfortran in their path - that's the whole point of using
environment variables.
