Well, a "version mismatch" (e.g. gcc-6.1 but gfortran-5.4) would also
cause Sage to install its GCC package, so probably gfortran hadn't been
upgraded.


FWIW, setting SAGE_INSTALL_GCC=no (before running 'configure') prevents
from Sage building its own GCC; in your case 'configure' would then have
exited with an error (if gfortran wasn't installed at all), or a warning
(upon a "version mismatch").
