OK, that confirms my initial thought that the gfortran binary was too 
new is wrong.

The gcc build is still going, though I did do 'make bootstrap' which 
means it gets built three times I think. It's been running over 6 hours

I'd certainly consider it. My maths is not very good, so I doubt there 
is much I could contribute in a mathematical sense to Sage. I'll 
certainly give the idea of creating a gcc package some consideration.
