Is this really a good idea? I guess that would creates ABI
compatibility issues if the packages links against librairies compiled
with g++-3.3. Indeed, I don't see the point in moving from g77 to
gfortran in 10.4-trans, since this branch does not support Intel Macs
anyway. We can probably leave g77 in 10.4-trans, and use gfortran in
10.4 non trans.
