I think that because the installed fortran compiler is somehow broken 
libtool detects that the compiler can not create shared libraries. 
Fortran being tested last must overwrite the varaibles that were set for 
the C and C++ compiler - so libtool does not create any shared libraries 
at all. I'll look into it.

Thanks,
Peter
