FWIW, I don't think that this makes sense from a community standpoint.

If you're serious about building a fortran frontend (which would be really 
really cool).  I think we should start it as another LLVM subproject.  It can 
certainly build off and use the Clang "liblex" to get the preprocessor etc, and 
taking changes to support Fortran into the clang tree would be perfectly fine.
