I think we sort of decided that mixing versions of gcc tools does work 
reliably.   There is a way to update your Mac to have matching c++ and 
fortran.  Not sure how it worked before, but CMake is doing the "right" 
thing by linking in the fortran library you are actually using.  Not 
sure why it was working before...
