Well, that frontend version number makes sense in some sense (no pun
intended), but I believe the frontend should print it in addition to
the GCC version number, not instead of it.
Are you aware that the "last-change-date" is automatically updated every
night?

How about using the string from gcc/version.c and *adding* the Fortran
specific version information?
g77 7.34: GCC version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)
GCC version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) -- g77 version 7.34
or something along these lines?
