Comment(by blb@…):

 Automatically setting the variants as appropriate via a port group could
 consist of taking a few arguments in a setup proc (like perl5 and haskell
 groups), one being a list of which ports are supported for fortran (eg,
 g95, gcc42, gcc43), the second being what to add to configure.args, and
 the third what to delete from it.  Then the group would manipulate
 configure.args as appropriate and set configure.{f77|fc}, all in each
 variant as needed.
