You can specify the actual library file name "libgfortran.so.3".

However, you shouldn't need to find implicit compiler runtime libraries.
Are you trying to mix C++ and Fortran?

CMake 2.8.x already does this.  Look in the CMakeFiles/CMake*Compiler.cmake
files in your build tree.  However, these variables are generally meant
for internal use by the link line computation code.

If a binary contains sources from both C++ and Fortran CMake already knows
how to link it with C++ and pass the Fortran runtime libraries on the link
line.
