 fortran spkg will go away).
 Agreed, which is why I would like only fortran to be built if it is the
 only language needed.

 (as opposed to using XCode 4 with many packages compiled with -O0)
 outweighs the "minus" of 25 minutes longer build time.
 I think this is something that should be brought to the listserv. Once I
 get a clang port up and running (which shouldn't be too bad on osx, since
 atlas looks like it will be the only package that is going to be hell to
 port), this can be resolved by changing the default compiler on osx to
 clang.

 I'm not sure about this, I'm using a mixture of clang (which dumps its
 version as 4.2.1) and gfortran-4.5.3, and occasionally gcc-4.2.4 and
 g++-4.2.4 to build sage, and currently the entire test suite is passing.
