Which one, Fortran-99 or Fortran-2006? ;) (Well, Ok, gfortran in gcc does not do 2006 yet, but still..) On the usage side: if you do that (i.e. remove it) you will be amazed by = how=20 many packages need it and how many users will cry foul because some=20 dependency of their favorite app requires Fortran and now they have to=20 rebuild gcc (or they even have no idea where to get Fortran from; yea, th= at=20 happened too). It is for this precise reason that this useflag was *added= * to=20 default profiles not so long ago (well, about two years now :)). And this= is=20 like the 3rd time somebody wants to rip it off, just because "this is som= e=20 kind of outdated language" ;). Can we please leave it alone finally? Pretty please? :).
