A native Fortran compielr is needed (seems to be) to + build the Fortran frontend of the cross-compiler. + Even if you don't want to build the Fortran frontend, gcc tries to see + if it has one, but fails. This is no problem, as the Fortran frontend + will not be built. There is nothing to be worry about (unless you do + want to build the Fortran frontend, of course). + +Fix: + None so far.
