Upon further investigation, it appears that Makefile that is
generated with you changes is fubar.   If I use nm on 
libgfortran.a before I applied your patch, I see for example

select.o:
00000000 T _gfortran_select_string
         U _gfortrani_compare_string

all_l4.o:
00000000 T _gfortran_all_l4
         U _gfortrani_internal_malloc_size
         U _gfortrani_runtime_error

After I apply your patch, use autoconf, automake, and aclocal, 
and build with --enable-maintainer-mode, "nm libgfortran.a" 
shows

select.o:
00000000 T _gfortran_select_string
         U _gfortrani_compare_string

all_l4.o:

all_l8.o:

There are no symbols in the object files!  I don't know
how this happened. :(
