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 And this is like the 3rd time somebody wants to rip it off, just because "this is some kind of outdated language" ;).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