I have been recompiling various things, the latest of which is lirc <http://www.lirc.org> One thing I notice when doing the configure step is that configure checks for a Fortran compiler. I've noticed this in many other packages as well, despite the fact that there is no Fortran code to be found.

Is this just one of those programming barnacles left over from a long time ago that no one has bothered to fix, or does it have some other relevance that I'm not aware of?
