I think we want the g77 binary package to work for both users with xcode-2.1
and xcode-2.2, which precludes building differently behaving pacakges
depending on the user's currently installed gcc.

What is there at the moment sucks and won't work on intel (i386 != i686),
unfortunately, but it is better than having two different g77 packages
depending on the different xcode versions, in my opinion.

Peter: I can't remember why JFM added the link to /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-apple-darwin8/4.0.0/libgcc.a to g77 in the first place, but if I remove it and rebuild g77, it seems to work fine (on 10.4.2 with Xcode 2.1).
