#143: gfortran not detected by ./configure

 On Ubuntu 10.04, when I type ./configure --prefix=/usr, I finish with an
 error:

 {{{
 configure: error: Your Fortran compiler can't compile Fortran 90, I cannot
 compile MUMPS
 configure: error: /bin/bash './configure' failed for ThirdParty/Mumps
 }}}

 I have gfortran installed on my system; this configure script should
 assume gfortran rather than g77 if that's what it really needs, and that
 would avoid this error.

 The workaround is the somewhat puzzling

 F77=gfortran ./configure --prefix=/usr

 ("Please set my F77 compiler to gfortran, not because I need to compile
 FORTRAN-77, but because I need to compile FORTRAN-90"! :-)
