Testsuite and Fortran

[Gerald Pfeifer]

I usually configure my tree without Fortran. When today I ran a
  make -k check
I was kind of astonished to see the following:

                === g77 tests ===

  Running target unix

                === g77 Summary ===

  # of expected passes            901
  # of unexpected failures        18

It seems that an old version of g77 that was part of my regular setup
(GCC 2.95.2) has been used instead.

That looks like an annoying bug with the testsuite to me.
