gfortran
gfortran compiles find on powerpc systems -- not on mactel systems. until a few weeks ago, people with mactel systems were under nondisclosure and could not post the info on any mailing lists.

I continue to hear Apple's branch has broken gfortran, though never hear specifically what is broken about it.
It doesn't compile - that's what's broken :). My impression is that there is quite a bunch of new pieces and changes in the C back-end code that were shared by the gfortran, but the fortran part was not updated correspondingly. I tried to patch some of the holes, but didn't get very far. Maybe if someone has the spare time to trace all the changes individually in both the FSF and Apple branch could put it together...
I don't mind filing a bug report with them too
The problem is Apple doesn't support gfortran and never did. The ability to compile gfortran from the Apple branch was just incidental and required some tweaking as well (basically manually enabling f95 in the build script and patching together fat gfortran libraries), but it was harmless. When you ask them, they say "use f2c" (but R doesn't support that).
I guess what I find odd about [gfortran not compiling] is that no one seems to mention that in the Apple mailing list over the last couple months. <http://lists.apple.com/archives/fortran-dev/2006/Jan/> ---------------------------------------------------------- SIGSIG -- signature too long (core dumped)
