Relative to the included files, it appears that with the Sage-provided
sage-g77_shared script, sage_fortran can't just point to the fortran
compiler since sage_fortran needs to have arguments, i.e. the "$@" is
needed in using sage_fortran.

"$@" just adds the command line arguments given to sage_fortran to fortran,
which is what a symlink implicitly does.

        /usr/bin/sage_fortran -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gfortran

on my machine will then not be used.
        

Perhaps so, but things don't work as they are presently. Maybe the python script messes up things. If I replace, in the sage-g77_shared script, sage_fortran with the path to the fortran compiler then things work. The symlink
