Each compiler adapter has a list of file extensions that it recognizes. Extensions that aren't recognized by some compiler are assumed to belong to the linker. In the current version, gcc only recognizes C and C++ type extensions.
Supporting a new language in cpptasks consists of two parts, writing a source file scanner that is sufficient to extract the file dependencies for the language of concern and writing an adapter for the command line compiler. In this case, there is already a scanner for FORTRAN that is used by the Digital -> Compaq -> HP Visual Fortran compiler. However, the Digital FORTRAN compiler uses a Microsoft C command line style. So it would be best to combine something in the GccCompatibleCompiler hierarchy with the existing FORTRAN parser. Let me take a look at it and I might be able to combine the two fairly painlessly.
