I realized that I haven't been clear enough!
The problem is that I configured *without* Fortran, and then the testsuite
used an old version of g77 in my path.
There are two bugs here, IMO:
1. Frontends that have not been configured should not be tested by
make check.
2. Even *if* frontend that has not been configured is tested (either
as a result of the first bug or explicitly), never ever should an
installed version be used, just because it is in the path.
Instead, an error message should be issued.
