I'm 95% sure you will need to build the complete gcc - not just the stage
1, even if you only want fortran, so I doubt trying to build just fortran
would save much, if any, time. Building g++ probably takes a non-
significant amount of extra time, but I'd think it much more sensible to
have all the compilers at the same version, and not a mixture.
We currently enforce the versions of gcc/g++/gfortran in Sage to be the
same. Strictly speaking they don't need to be, but it increases the
chances of the build going ok if the same versions are used. We can also
attempt to replicate bugs reported much easier if all versions are the
same.
